The Cause of All Nations: An International History of the American Civil War

Thanks for the Seward lesson. Your answer is more like what I had as an impression of Seward from my little bit of schooling on him. Having visited his home in Auburn and seen the masses of things that he was given on the continent and in diplomatic circles, it is hard to think that the Europeans had anything but respect for Mr. Seward.
