The Adams-Onís Treaty: Resolving Border Disputes and Expanding American Territory

The Adams-Onís Treaty: Resolving Border Disputes and Expanding American Territory is a comprehensive examination of one of the most important treaties in American history. The book explores the complex negotiations between the United States and Spain that led to the settlement of a long-standing border dispute in the southeast and the acquisition of Florida by the United States. It also delves into the lesser-known aspects of the treaty, such as the establishment of the US-Canada border and its impact on Native American tribes. Through a detailed analysis of the treaty's historical context and legacy, the book sheds light on the critical role that the Adams-Onís Treaty played in shaping American diplomacy and territorial expansion in the 19th century.
