Talk:Seward, Alaska
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wondering how to edit this U.S. City Entry?
The WikiProject U.S. Cities standards might help.
[edit] Removal of text
I removed the following text as it is more appropriated for the state of Alaska as a whole, not for the community of Seward:
- for $7,200,000 on March 30, 1867. This translated into approximately 2.5 cents per acre ($6.18/km²) for 586,400 square miles (1,519,000 km²) of territory, three times the size of Texas. The purchase of this frontier land ("Seward's Icebox") was mocked as "Seward's Folly" and Andrew Johnson's "polar bear garden"
