This is an excellent short excerpt, and makes it make that "quantum" leap, and the leap speaks volumes for what happened, France possibly had little concept of the actual worth of the Louisiana purchase, well done, beautifully written, good luck, blessings Roy

Well done
Comment from roof35
This is very interesting and I am sure it involved a fair amount of research on your part. It is well written. Your illustration, of course, pairs perfectly. To nitpick, I am not sure you describe how you would change the outcome. Perhaps you are saying the purchase would not have happened had you not jumped in. As I said, nitpicking because this is very nicely done.

Thank you, roof35, very much for taking the time to read and review my story. I appreciate your comments and your ?nit-picking? is valid. I am thinking MY James convinced Livingston to sign the document. In reality, the negotiations went on and on and Livingston hedged because he?d only been given $10 million to use.
