Abstract

Americans have shown interest in Greece from early times. On March 25, 1821, the Greeks began their battle to win their liberation from the Turks. It was a devastating war which lasted almost ten years. Americans in many walks of life were keenly interested and deeply concerned about the out­ come of the Greek Revolutionary War and the fate of the Greek people. During this time, America was deeply involved with the status of the newly emerging countries of Latin-America and their relations with Europe. In this paper, the sentiments of the people and the official position of America toward Greece will be shown.
