Great insight to how the Unite States cornered the hemp trade, created the first millionaires and denied the British majesty of the seas. John Quincy Adams as minister to Russia befriended Tzar Alexander making worldwide trade possible and allowed Russia to create St Petersburg as one of the centers of commerce in the old world.
A fascinating look at post revolutionary history.
One of the best history books I have ever read.
