Publisher's Synopsis
""The Danish Islands: Are We Bound In Honor To Pay For Them?"" is a book written by James Parton in 1869. The book discusses the possibility of the United States purchasing the Danish West Indies (now the U.S. Virgin Islands) from Denmark. Parton examines the history and geography of the islands, as well as their economic potential and strategic importance. He also explores the legal and ethical considerations of such a purchase, including whether or not the United States is obligated to pay for the islands. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the Danish West Indies and their potential acquisition by the United States, making it a valuable historical resource on this topic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
