Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Consular Service of the United States: Its History and Activities Up to the middle of the last century the chief functions of consular services in Christian nations were the protection of citizens living or traveling abroad, and the superintendence of the maritime interests Of the home countries. Within the last fifty years a development has taken place which has completely altered the comparative importance Of the duties to be per formed. Commercial nations have more and more encouraged their trade interests to look to the consuls for active aid in protecting and extending foreign commerce. The Office of the consul has consequently assumed more of a public character than it formerly possessed, the national interests have come to occupy a larger share of official attention, and, with the devel opment of greater public security, the protection of fellow countrymen has become a less frequent, if not a less important duty. The object of the present monograph is to sketch the history of the consular service of the United States and to point out especially the development Of its relations to trade. It also aims to indicate the service actually rendered at the present time, the limits Of the aid which consuls can lend to commerce, and the defects in our present consular organization. A study of the systems in use in the chief European commercial nations is also included to show what has been accomplished there in making the consuls a commercial body and the means adopted for that purpose.

Download or read book The American Consul written by Charles Stuart Kennedy and published by New Acdemia+ORM. This book was released on 2015-12-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This definitive study of the U.S. Consular Service examines its history from the Revolutionary War until its integration with the Foreign Service in 1924. As a British colony, Americans relied on the British consular system to take care of their sailors and merchants. But after the Revolution they scrambled to create an American service. While the American diplomatic establishment was confined to the world’s major capitals, U.S. consular posts proliferated to most of the major ports where the expanding American merchant marine called. Mostly untrained political appointees, each consul was a lonely individual relying on his native wits to provide help to distressed Americans. Appointments were often given to accomplished authors, with notable members including Nathaniel Hawthorne, James Fennimore Cooper, William Dean Howells, Bret Harte, and the cartoonist Thomas Nast. Briefly traces the history of consuls from their creation in Ancient Egypt, this volume sheds light on the significant roles American consuls played throughout history, including in the War of 1812, the Mexican War, the Civil War, and the Spanish-American War. This second edition continues the narrative to cover World War I, the Greek disaster in Turkey, and the early years of the Weimar Republic.
Download or read book American Government in Ireland 1790 1913 written by Bernadette Whelan and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 1473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reconstructs American consular activity in Ireland from 1790 to 1913 and elucidates the interconnectedness of America’s foreign interests, Irish nationalism and British imperialism. Its originality lies in that it is based on an interrogation of American, British and Irish archives, and covers over one hundred years of American, Irish and British relations through the post of the American consular official while also uncovering the consul’s role in seminal events such as the War of 1812, the 1845-51 Irish famine, the American Civil War, Fenianism and mass Irish emigration. It is a history of the men who filled posts as consuls, vice consuls, deputy consuls and consular agents. It reveals their identities, how they interpreted and implemented US foreign policy, their outsider perspective on events in both Ireland and America and their contribution to the expanding transatlantic relationship. The work intersects diaspora studies, emigration history and diplomatic relations as well as illuminating the respective Irish-American, Anglo-Irish and Anglo-American relationships.

Download or read book The American Consul written by Charles Stuart Kennedy and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1990 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a history of the United States Consular Service, an unheralded, but significant element in the promotion of American commerce and influence abroad from the Revolution onward. A group of relatively minor officials, appointed by the vagaries of political patronage and virtually ignored by successive Secretaries of State, American consuls were established in most major foreign ports and trading centers early in the history of the Republic. Consular officers were major players in America's overseas presence because of their special responsibility for seamen and shipping. They were the officials most concerned with the Barbary pirates and worked with the United States Navy to remove them from the Mediterranean. Until 1822 they were the only official representative of the U.S. government in the emerging republics of Latin America. American consuls in Britain helped prevent the Confederates from assembling and supplying a fleet out of European ports. The Spanish-American War was essentially a consular war-fought in colonial territories where consuls supplied intelligence and support for American miliary actions. The American Consul is a long overdue history of the Consular Service. It introduces, through brief histories, anecdotes, and vignettes, some of the men sent abroad by an imperfect system to represent our country. It is an evolving chronicle of their contributions to the expansion of American influence from the start of the Revolutionary War to the eve of the First World War, when American diplomats assumed the predominant role in America's foreign relations. This book is must reading for anyone interested in American diplomatic history.
