Write an essay that explains your position on Seward's Proposal

Imagine you are a member of Congress in 1867 and debating William Seward's proposal for the purchase of Alaska. You are asked to explain how you plan to vote on the proposal. Prepare a speech of 350 words explaining either your support for or opposition to the proposal. Thoroughly explain and justify your support for or opposition to the purchase. Use proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation as you write your speech. Note: Be sure to write your speech as if you are a member of Congress in 1867, not someone who lives in the present day.

The essay must be written by you to showcase your knowledge of the Seward proposal and show your writing skills, as the assignment intended.

Steps to writing the essay

  • Introduction: Greet the members of Congress, introduce who you are, and show your interest in debating Seward's proposal.

  • Thesis statement: Give your opinion on Seward's proposal, highlighting whether you think it is a beneficial or harmful proposal.

  • Body: Write a paragraph showing the reasons why you have this opinion, showing all the advantages and disadvantages that Seward's proposal represents. Write one more paragraph showing how opinions contrary to yours are incorrect and do not represent a rationale that should be followed.

  • Conclusion: Emphasize your thesis statement, restate your opinion and show the possible benefits that will be seen if your opinion is heard.

Remember that in 1867 people spoke a very formal language, emphasizing cultured and far-fetched words. You must use this type of word in your essay.

In addition, you will have to create your opinion on Seward's proposal. For this, you should search for articles that analyze this proposal and help you decide if it was beneficial or harmful.
