American Yearbook 2007
Book Description
The yearbook publishes materials covering the period from the end of the 18th century to the middle of the 20th century. The authors consider a wide range of issues - from the ratification of the Constitution in 1787 in Massachusetts to the so-called American university novel. Under the heading "Retropage" the reader will find little-known travel impressions of the poet K. Balmont from his trip to America at the beginning of the 20th century. The column "America and Russia" provides a comparative analysis of the attitudes of Russians and Americans towards the aborigines, examines the activities of Soviet scientific, technical and industrial intelligence in the United States during World War II. The Canadian theme is represented by articles on the problem of the protection of fur seals in Russian-Canadian relations at the turn of the 19th-20th centuries and the evolution of Canadian-Mexican bilateral relations. The "Bibliography" section contains works on the history of the USA and Canada, published in Russian in 2007-2008. For historians, political scientists and anyone interested in American history.
