Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Complete History of the Spanish-American War of 1898 It has been said that no countrys public policy is actuated by unselfishness or the( dictates of humanity. To a certain extent 1 ;-this is true, since mutual jealousy and dis trust among nations render such a course difficult and well-nigh impossible. But the United States, which struck the blow for liberty in 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 1 help. Not since the world began has a more righteous war been prosecuted bravely to a Jtriumphant conclusion. It is important that all the features of this struggle should be understood.
