Rezanov's early death left the plan without another person of adequate energy or ability and Russia gave up its attempt to colonize California, finally giving up its stake in Alaska in 1867. The story has been well-researched through Russian and American sources, as named in the Bibliography. An amazing story of what might-have-been and what nearly-was.
