Editor's Notes
Russia had just ended the Crimean war with the British and was wary about their territory of Alaska and the possibility of it being annexed by the British. Tsar Alexander the II negotiated with Britain and America hoping to start a bidding war. (Russia needed money). In the end America ended up the victor. Russia really had no interest in selling Alaska to their enemies.
