Download or read book The Philippines Under Spanish and American Rules Classic Reprint written by C. H. Forbes-Lindsay and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-17 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philippines Under Spanish and American Rules For my statements regarding industries, resources, etc., I have depended, in the main, upon the ample sources of information afforded by the U. S. War Department, having been taught by experience to regard them as the most reliable. I have avoided polemic discussion, because there are others much better qualified than myself to pass opinion on the controversial questions connected with the Philippines; but that the reader, who will natu rally look for some such expressions in a book of this kind, may be satisfied, I have fully remedied the deficiency on my part by inserting a chapter of ex tracts from public addresses delivered by the Honor able William H. Taft, who is recognized as the fore most authority on our insular possessions in the Pacific. These addresses are the most direct, logical, and consistent statements of the conditions and pros peets in the Philippine Islands, as well as the most clear and unequivocal expression of the policy of the American Government towards those islands. I much regret that. The quotations are, necessarily, limited to a few brief extracts and strongly recommend the reading of the addresses in extenso to all who would have a clear idea of our relations to the Philippines and the problems involved in their administration.

Besides his ability, high character, and courage, he possesses the impor tant requisites of unfailing tact and courtesy, and, withal, his military education and training and his soldierly qualities are invaluable adjuncts in the equipment of our representative in a country so completely under military rule as was Cuba. General Lee kindly invited us to Sit at his table at the hotel during our stay in Havana, and this opportunity for frequent informal talks with him was of great help to me.

Download or read book History Up to Date written by William A. Johnston and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-09 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History Up to Date: A Concise Account of the War of 1898 Between the United States and Spain; Its Causes and the Treaty of Paris This war, it is true, resulted in Spain being driven from the vicinity of the Americas and in the rich Philippine Islands being wrested from her grasp, but these results are mere incidents to the real outcome of the war. The war found the United States of America a thriving young republic, a healthy boy who had never been away from home; the war left the young republic one of the great powers of the world, a full-grown man gone forth in search for adventures. The importance that the events of 1898 must necessarily have on the future history of the world is more than sufficient excuse for offering this book to the public. The colonial policy of the United States, the American influence in the far East, the drawing together of the two great anglo-saxon nations, Great Britain and the United States, must henceforth be leading topics in politics, literature, statesmanship.

Download or read book Campaigning in the Philippines written by Karl Irving Faust and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-19 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Campaigning in the Philippines: Illustrated Hen the idea of compiling an historical account of the operations of the American forces W in the Philippine Islands was conceived, the war clouds had nearly all disappeared from the horizon, and all that remained were those caused by the prospect of trouble with the insurgents, which, however, were not supposed to be serious. It was expected that the volum teer regiments would be speedily replaced by regulars, who would only be needed for policing the islands. It was intended, therefore, to give in this book an accurate description of the campaign, from Dewey's great Victory to the return of the volunteers, and, in addition, a brief description of the islands. It was also proposed to publish special editions of the book for each of the volunteer regiments, which would contain, in addition to the foregoing, a detailed account of the experience of the regiments from date of mustering into service as volunteers to their return to the United States. In order to obtain this information, it was found necessary to go to Manila, and consequently on December 24, 1898, mr. Ka'rl 'irving faust, to whom is due the credit of having conceived and carried into execution this work, sailed from San Francisco on the steamer Gaelic, bound for Manila via Hongkong, with plans and prospectus for com piling such a book. Arriving at Manila on February 2, 1899, it soon became apparent that the plans must be changed. Dark foreboding clouds were hanging over the city. And for more than a month there had been ominous rumors of an outbreak of hostilities. Two days later the expected happened, and the real campaign of the Eighth Army Corps commenced in dead earnest. It at once became evident that there would be great deeds to be recorded On many fields, involving time and labor far exceeding that which had been anticipated and provided for. Mr. Faust at once set about organizing a competent staff of writers who would follow up the troops and be eye-witnesses to whatever happened. The data thus collected must be collated, condensed and arranged. Fortunately the volunteer regiments furnished abundant material for doing this most important work.

In the Campaign in the Philippine Islands San Francisco was ablaze with the spirit abroad in the land and incoming regi ments from the sister States had been received and welcomed with no uncertain chivalry and hospitality.
