''Our New Alaska: Or The Seward Purchase Vindicated'' is a historical book written by Charles Hallock in 1886. The book focuses on the Seward Purchase, which was the acquisition of Alaska from Russia by the United States in 1867. Hallock argues that the purchase was a wise decision and that Alaska has immense potential for economic growth and development. He describes the natural resources and beauty of the region, including the abundance of fish, timber, and minerals. The book also contains a detailed account of the history and culture of the native people of Alaska. Hallock’s writing is informative and persuasive, and he presents a compelling case for the value of Alaska to the United States. Overall, ''Our New Alaska'' is a fascinating look at a pivotal moment in American history and the potential of a vast and unexplored territory.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
