This book was released on 1972 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This major work by Philip Foner, the well-known historian, has as its chief object the re-definition of the conflict known in the U.S. historiography as the "Spanish-American" war. This very name, in his view, reflects the bias of two generations of historians who relegated Cuba to the passive position of a prize in a struggle between Spain and the United States. It is his contention that the Cuban nation, by virtue of its prolonged and successful rebellion of 1895-1898 (treated in Vol. 1) was a central protagonist of the conflict, its role ending when it was subjected to neocolonial status by the United States. In pursuing this new outlook, Professor Foner studied the sources available in the United States, the rich materials in the Archivo Nacional and the Library of the City Historian in Havana, and enlisted help and documentary evidence furnished by the leading historians and historical institutes of Cuba. These sources have enabled him to deal at length with the occupation and subjugation of Cuba by the United States and reconstruct the story in richer detail and in a more realistic interpretation than has ever been done before. Volume II begins with the war in Cuba after U.S. intervention in 1898 and covers the imposition of U.S. domination of Cuba through the Platt Amendment, which marked the beginning of American neocolonialism"--Back cover.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The First Tennessee Regiment, United States Volunteers Crittenden and the slaughter of the crew of the ill-fated Virginius, and to put an end to the starving of noncombating Cuban women and children: but over and above all surged the resolution to punish Spain for the insult offered to the stars and stripes on February 15, 1898. Then there was obliterated the imaginary line between North and South: sons of the Lost Cause and of the Union were actuated by the same high patriotism, and it could then be truthfully sung: "There is a cry that rises and swells on every breeze - No laggards on the shore and no laggards on the seas; From homes of Lee and Lincoln the patriot souls are seen - Thank God! the land's united, the old flag waves serene" And Tennessee? As had been her course since her admission into the Union in 1796, she showed by her enthusiasm her indorsement of the sentiment - "Our country, may she aways be right: but - our country, right or wrong!' All the States promised their quota of troops, but even as early as April 20, this telegram was sent to the papers from Washington, proving once more Tennessee's right to be called the Volunteer State: Washington, April 20. - All day to-day letters and telegrams have been pouring in upon Secretary of War Alger from prominent citizens of Tennessee, offering their services in the event of war. Similar telegrams have been received by the Tennessee delegation, which were duly forwarded to the war department. So far more offers have been received from Tennessee than from any other State in the Union. Under the first call for volunteers Tennessee's quota was to be three regiments of infantry. The officers of the First were: Colonel - Wm. Crawford Smith. Lieutenant Colonel - Gracey Childers. Majors - Albert B. Bayless, B. Frank Cheatham, and John G. Maguire. Major and Surgeon - Richard A. Barr. Captain and Assistant Surgeon - R. M. Kirby-Smith and Percy Jones First Lieutenant and Adjutant - James K. Polk. First Lieutenant and Quartermaster - Andrew J. Duncan. Captain and Chaplain - Lewis J. Leland. The field officers of the Second were: Colonel - Kellar Anderson. Lieutenant Colonel - Thomas E. Patterson. Majors - Frank H. Deffrey, Mark A. Walker, and George W. Seay. Those of the Third were: Colonel - James P. Fyffe. Lieutenant Colonel - Daniel M. Coffman. Majors - William Brown, James W. Meeks, and Edwin C. Ramage. Under the second call a fourth regiment was organized, with the following field officers: Colonel - George LeRoy Brown. Lieutenant Colonel - Harvey H. Hannah. Majors - William C. Tatom, William O. Vertrees, and J. Crum Epier. Two of the regiments - the Second and Third - were discharged before they saw active service in the field, and the Fourth was quartered awhile in Cuba, then discharged. While they were not permitted to take part in any of the battles between this country and Spain, or between our forces and the Filipinos, the soldiers were ready to fight like Tennesseans, and would have reflected glory on American arms. The First Tennessee Regiment was the earliest organized, the companies constituting it being Company A, Nashville: Company B, Columbia; Company C, Nashville: Company D, Lawrenceburg: Company E, Nashville: Company F, Nashville: Company G, Waverly: Company H, Clarksville: Company I, Big Sandy: Company K, Springfield: and Companies L and M to be recruited from Nashville. On April 23 the National State Guard was ordered out, the order from Adjutant Charles Sykes being addressed to the various commanders throughout the State, and to those of the First Regiment. It was made in anticipation of the President's call. The troops were to rendezvous at Nashville preparatory to being mustered into the service by Lieut. Samuel Seay, of the Fourteenth United .
Download or read book The War with Spain in 1898 written by David F. Trask and published by Free Press. This book was released on 1981 with total page 680 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Remember the Maine!" The war cry spread throughout the United States after the American battleship was blown up in Havana harbor on February 15, 1898. Americans, already sympathetic with Cuba's struggle for independence from Spain, demanded action. Brief and decisive, not too costly, the Spanish-American War made the United States a world power.David F. Trask's War with Spain in 1898 is a cogent political and military history of that "splendid little war." It describes the failure of diplomacy; the state of preparedness of both sides; the battles, including those of Theodore Roosevelt and his Rough Riders; the enlargement of conflict to rout the Spanish from Puerto Rico and the Philippines; and the misconceptions surrounding the war.
