Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III. Wheelwright's Shipwreck At Buenos Ayres. ? New Direction Which This Inauspicious Event Gave To His Life. ? Wheelwright Decides To Leave For The Pacific Coast. It may be said that Wheelwright had two births, two lives, two countries; at least, his life may be divided into two parts, which form, as it were, two separate existences. The first of these begins with his birth in 1798, and closes at the age of twenty-five; the other, with his escape from shipwreck in 1823, when he nearly lost his life in Buenos Ayres, until his death in London fifty years afterwards. Forty years of his life were spent on the Pacific coast, and twelve at the River Plate. It was a singular but very natural circumstance that this man of the two Americas should have directed his operations from London: for that city is the organic centre of universal progress; it is the great mine of capital, of freedom, and of intelligence for all nations. Thus Wheelwright was a gift which the waves of the Rio de la Plata brought to South America, his vessel having gone to pieces on the bank of Ortiz. A new Hernando de Cortes, he remained in the land of his shipwreck, in order to conquer its soil, not by arms, but by steam; not for Spain, but for civilization; not for the all. absorbing North America, but to assure South America in the possession of herself. In both his lives he was of seaside origin. Born in North America, at Newburyport, and in South America, at the port of Buenos Ayres, he stepped upon her shores in utter destitution, as did his Puritan ancestors when they disembarked on the coast ot Massachuse;ts, two centuries earlier, with no other tools and equipments than their genins and their zeal. He had no need of more to gain wealth and fame; and the inauguration of a railway at Quilmes...

Download or read book Argentina and the United States 1810-1960 written by Harold F. Peterson and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 1964-06-30 with total page 663 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr. Peterson's book is the first, in English or Spanish, to encompass the entire sweep of Argentine-American relations from the time of Argentina's revolt against Spain in 1810 to the close of its 150th year of independence. Through comprehensive analysis and narrative, this study illuminates one of the most enigmatic areas of Western Hemisphere relationships. From what would seem to be a bewildering array of incidents, Professor Peterson isolates the basic undercurrents which mold Argentine policies. Internally, Argentina's path to stability is shown to be marred by developing social stratification and conflict, economic mismanagement, and the deep uncertainty of shifts from dictatorship to democracy. Internationally, the germs of discord with the United States are found in nationalism, anticolonialism, desire for hemispheric leadership, and economic competition. Discussed, too, are the fascinating, crucial weaknesses and errors of human leadership in both countries. Argentina and the United States 1810–1960 makes an important contribution to an understanding of current, as well as historical, affairs: it greatly helps to explain why in the twentieth century the government and people of the United States frequently face an "Argentine problem."

Download or read book Making the Americas written by Thomas F. O'Brien and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2007-07-01 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Americans' belief in their economic, political, and cultural superiority launched them on a mission to transform Latin America that has evolved into a global process of Americanization. From corporate and philanthropic initiatives to military interventions, Americans motivated by self-interest and idealism sought to reshape Latin America and gave birth to the American driven process of globalization. Synthesizing a broad range of international relations scholarship, including perspectives from gender, race, and cultural studies, O'Brien offers a sweeping history of the Americas that ranges from the adventures of eighteenth-century whaling men to the contemporary struggle over globalization. As a part of this study, the author explains how the responses of Latin Americans to Americanization have varied from the vehement rejection of U.S. economic dominance to embracing as well as reconfiguring the icons of American consumer culture. O'Brien's goal is to provide readers with a nuanced understanding of how the people of the Americas have shaped their own history, and influenced the development of U.S. economic, strategic, and cultural power in the world today.

Download or read book John Randolph Clay written by George Irvin Oeste and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the biography of a nineteenth-century gentleman whose career in the diplomatic service of his country contributed greatly to the worldwide expansion of American trade and commerce. John Randolph Clay (1808-1885), son of a Philadelphia Congressman, was named in honor of John Randolph, his father's friend and political associate, with whom he lived after his father's death. In 1830, John Randolph, appointed Minister to Russia, secured the appointment of Clay as Secretary of Legation. Randolph soon returned home, seriously ill, leaving Clay as Charge d'Affaires. Although youthful and inexperienced, Clay acquitted himself well, continuing in diplomatic posts in Russia and Austria for seventeen years. From 1847 to 1860, Clay was the diplomatic representative of the United States in Peru. He worked tirelessly, whether applying pressure for the payment of claims, protecting the business and personal interests of Americans, or insisting on the rights of our citizens to participate in the guano trade. He negotiated treaties of commerce, maritime rights, and whaling rights with the Peruvian government. His greatest triumph came in avoiding a rupture with Peru at the time of the Lobos Islands controversy. During the thirty years in which he served his country in foreign lands, Clay saw the coming of the steamship, the railroad, and the telegraph. He met or was on terms of personal friendship with many of the great men of the age: Prince Metternich, Louis Phillipe, Count Nesselrode, and the Peruvian dictator-president Castilla. He was equally at ease amid the splendors of court life in St. Petersburg or Vienna or in the shabby palace of the Peruvian president in the ancient city of Lima. His story, fascinating in itself, is also the story of the growth of the United States diplomatic service.
