ISBN: 9780813155128 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Theodore Roosevelt's interest in foreign affairs was no less intense than his zeal for domestic reform, as Eugene P. Trani demonstrates in this new study of the Portsmouth Conference which in 1906 brought an end to the Russo-Japanese war. Conscious of America's growing stature as a world power and concerned lest continued hostilities disrupt further the political and economic composition of East Asia, Roosevelt proclaimed himself peacemaker. With characteristic energy -- and with considerable tact -- he initiated the conference and successfully brought about a treaty. It was no easy...

ISBN: 9780826213884 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In The First Cold War, Donald E. Davis and Eugene P.

Wilson later reversed those negative impressions by being the first to recognize Russia's Provisional Government, resulting in positive U.S.-Russian relations until Lenin gained power in 1917. Wilson at first seemed unsure whether...
