Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The War in Cuba: Being a Full Account of Her Great, Struggle for Freedom; Containing a Complete Record of Spanish Tyranny and Oppression; Scenes of Violence and Bloodshed; Frequent Uprising of a Gallant and Long Suffering People; Revolution of 1868, ´95-96; Daring Deeds O The eyes of the whole world are turned toward Cuba, eagerly watching her Great Struggle for Freedom. The American people recall the long and gory conflict that made this a free and independent nation. Their hearts beat high and their blood grows warm as they read of Cuba´s gallant fight for Independence. The Cuban people have the same reason for their Great Revolution that America had when she threw off the yoke of oppression. For long ages the beautiful "Queen of the Antilles" has suffered under the curse of Spanish tyranny and injustice. She has been robbed and impoverished. Just rights have been denied to her people. Repeatedly and gallantly she has fought to be free and has poured out her blood. The whole tragic story is contained in this very comprehensive volume. The reader follows the silver-starred flag of the Cuban Patriots which waves from one end of the Island to the other. He sees an army of heroes fighting as Spartans fought at Thermopylæ, as sturdy Scots fought at Bannockburn, as the brave souls in our own Revolution fought at Bunker Hill and Yorktown. Part I. treats of the Great Insurrection. Spanish brutality and injustice are pictured as they really are, and the reader fully under stands why Cuba demands Independence from the atrocious rule of the haughty Castilian.
