About This Book
This illustrated narrative chronicles military, political, and humanitarian dimensions of the conflict between the United States and Spain, emphasizing land and naval operations around Cuba and the wider Spanish colonial world. It blends campaign descriptions and eyewitness reportage with photographs and drawings, and includes chapters on Cuban history, geography, natural resources, urban life, insurgent actions, and Spanish countermeasures such as reconcentration. The volume examines diplomatic and military responses, notable incidents that galvanized opinion, relief and prison cases, and provides surveys of Puerto Rico and the Philippines, evaluations of army and navy strength, and the role of reporters and aid organizations.
