A fascinating encyclopedic survey of the Spanish-Cuban/American War, the Philippine War, and the small wars between 1899 and the end of the occupation of Haiti in 1934. The name changes themselves are instructive. The usage of "Spanish-American War" ignores the fact that the war in Cuba had been largely won by the Cuban revolutionaries before US intervention, hence the new title, Spanish-Cuban/American War. The use of "Philippine Insurrection" is replaced by Philippine War, since the Philippine forces had taken much of the islands from Spain before US ground forces arrived. And guerillas or revolutionaries have replaced "bandits," the term used by the US to discredit oppositional forces. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Excerpt from Ypiranga: A Love Tale of the Brazils Petropolis is the summer capital of Brazil, the residence of foreign diplomates and the abode of wealthy citizens for here it is, when yellow fever, the scourge of Rio de Janeiro, is endemic, that the inhabitants flee for safety and refuge - the long avenues of princely mansions and stretches of deserted villas suggesting, in the closed season, a modern Herculaneum or Pompeii restored.
