Answer:

Purchase of Alaska, 1867

The purchase of Alaska in 1867 marked the end of Russian efforts to expand trade and settlements to the Pacific coast of North America, and became an important step in the United States rise as a great power in the Asia-Pacific region. Beginning in 1725, when Russian Czar Peter the Great dispatched Vitus Bering to explore the Alaskan coast, Russia had a keen interest in this region, which was rich in natural resources and lightly inhabited. As the United States expanded westward in the early 1800s, Americans soon found themselves in competition with Russian explorers and traders. St. Petersburg, however, lacked the financial resources to support major settlements or a military presence along the Pacific coast of North America and permanent Russian settlers in Alaska never numbered more than four hundred. Defeat in the Crimean War further reduced Russian interest in this region.

Read the sentence from Life on the Mississippi. He raged and stormed so (he was crossing the river at the time) that I judge it
malfutka [58]
I would say "I judge it made him blind" shows the realism of this man's seemingly angry state. The speaker sees that this man's anger has exceeded his "mental vision", shall we say. The man isn't sure of what he's doing, except that he must do something to feed and calm the anger.
I'm sorry if this doesn't help, but that's how I see it as realism.
