Excerpt from The Story of Our War With Spain More than this, the business interests of the United States in Cuba were constantly increas Ing; American citizens, resident there because of business duties, were continually in danger or jeopardy; and, more important still, the miserable and insufferable sanitary conditions of what should be a healthful and beautiful island made the land a breeding-spot of yellow fever and other menacing diseases to which almost every epidemic that had visited the United States could be directly traced.

Excerpt from History of the Spanish-American War: Embracing a Complete Review of Our Relations With Spain But what could we do? The situation was inexorable. It was either ruthlessly to beat down, or be ignominiously humiliated. When nations can do nothing they can fight, and fight we did. And so did the Spaniard. But centuries of moral poison, percolating through the veins of the body politic of Spain, had done their work. The obso lete Spaniard was no match for the alert and enterprising American. The war was quickly over. It might not have been so quickly over in the case of Germany and France; but its end would have been the same. Spain has no reason to be ashamed of her part in it. Through out the United States, at least, the Spanish character stands higher to-day than it did before the war, though the Spaniards have Admirals Montejo and Cervera and General Toral to thank for the maintenance of the national credit.

Excerpt from The Spanish-American War IT has not been my purpose in the preparation of the manuscript of this book to write a full history of the war with Spain; on the contrary, it has been to place on record some of the prominent facts connected with the organization, equipment, and movements of the army, together with the administration of the War Department, with the h0pe that such statement will serve a useful purpose as an example, should another crisis of the same kind occur.

Excerpt from A Complete History of the Spanish-American War of 1898 But the United States, which struck the blow for liberty ih 1776, and for unity in 1861, next smote in the sacred name of humanity. The cries Of'the dead and dying on her doorsteps fell no longer on deaf ears. Disavowing all intention of adding the island of Cuba to our domain, we made war upon the wickedest nation that claims to be civilized, and we waged it in behalf of a weak but gallant people who needed our help. Not since the world began has a more righteous war been prosecuted bravely to a triumphant conclusion. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
