The Alaska Purchase in American History

By: David K. Fremon

Late on the night of March 29, 1867, Secretary of State William Seward met a Russian statesman to conclude an agreement they had been discussing, that the United States would buy the vast territory of Alaska from Russia. By 4:00 A.M. the next day, they had settled the terms of the sale. Then Seward had to convince Congress, and the American people, that the Alaska Territory was worth the price of 7.2 million dollars. Author David K. Fremon traces the exploration, settlement, and development of Alaska under the Russian government, and shows how the land deal that is often called Seward's Folly was, in fact, one of the best bargains in history.

The Jim Crow Laws and Racism in United States History

By: David K. Fremon

In 1954, the Supreme Court rejected the notion of "separate by equal" facilities in the famous BROWN V. BOARD OF EDUCATION decision. Highlighting the efforts of both blacks and whites to promote racial equality in the face of violent attempts to preserve white supremacy, Author David K. Fremon shows how segregation made the South a caste system. He traces the history of racial discrimination from the end of the Civil War through the Jim Crow era of segregation. After years of enduring separate facilities—including water fountains, telephone books, hospitals, and cemeteries—for whites and blacks, Fremon shows how African Americans and their white supporters were eventually able to win the battle for equal rights. This book is developed from THE JIM CROW LAWS AND RACISM IN AMERICAN HISTORY to allow republication of the original text into ebook, paperback, and trade editions.
