A Railroad for Turkey: the Chester Project, 1908–1913

John A. DeNovo

Business History Review, 1959, vol. 33, issue 3, 300-329

Abstract: There was an interlude when enchantment with Dollar Diplomacy overcame the reluctance of Washington to become involved in Near East politics. The Chester project, however, was defeated by German imperialism, lack of popular support for business ambitions abroad, and vacillation by the promoters themselves. The time for effective alliance between the State Department and American businessmen was not yet at hand.
