Synopsis
Thompson presents a complete account of the trade relations of the Confederacy with Europe and Mexico. The original plan to purchse supplies in Europe was faulty in many respects. With the formulation of a new plan of operation the way was cleared for the South to negotiate a large foreign loan. The discussion leads up to the unanswerable question: would the war have ended in southern defeat if the new plan had been adopted before the last year of the war? Originally published in 1935.

Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Reprint. NF/0/Reprint-1973 UNC. Emphasis is placed in this study on the development of the original and imperfect plans of operation abroad into a new plan which compares favorably with any achievement of the Confederate Government. This new plan involved centralization and rigid governmental control of the purchasing agents, of the shipment of cotton, of finance and blockade running. This study raises the unanswerable question--would the war have ended in Southern defeat if the New Plan had been adopted one year earlier? Book Condition is Near Fine; light gray cloth over boards with black lettering on spine. 137pp. Reprint of the 1935 First Edition by University of North Carolina. Chapter notes, bibliography and index. Uncommon book. Some light spots (loss of color) on cloth near page foredge. Otherwise Fine. No markings or soiling. Solid copy. Size: Small.
