Description: FASTSHIPPING HASSLEFREERETURNS SECUREPAYMENT EXCELLENTSERVICE Description Two captivating manuscripts in one book: The Spanish-American War: A Captivating Guide to the Armed Conflict Between the United States of America and Spain That Took Place after the U.S. Intervened in the Cuban War of Independence The Philippine-American War: A Captivating Guide to the Philippine Insurrection That Started When the United States of America Claimed Possession of the Philippines after the Spanish-American War The Spanish-American War really only lasted about ten weeks (the buildup and decision to go to war took longer than the war itself), but a peace treaty was not signed until December of 1898. This was an event that was the tipping point for the end of the Spanish Empire and the rise of the US as a formidable player on the world stage. Not all Americans were happy with the change, with famous Americans like Mark Twain speaking out about the US occupation of the lands that it was meant to save. This breach was seen as being as antithetical to American ideals as bowing to the English crown would have been seen during the American Revolution. Still, the isolationist's view of the country was no longer popular, and more Americans wished to play a larger part in the world. The ideology of the country was not entirely different than it had been, but it was moving more toward the superpower it eventually became by the end of World War II. America had finally taken strides to match the might and power of the other Western countries, and it was increasingly more difficult to ignore the events around the world once they had lands to protect so far from the mainland. Some of the topics covered in part 1 of this book include: Spain's Waning Influence America - A Country Itching to Break out of Isolationism Building Tensions America's Sensationalized Sympathy with Cuba Remember the Maine! - An Excuse for War A Brief War with Huge Implications Rough Riders - The Beginning of the Legend of Theodore Roosevelt How the Smoked Yankees Ensured Roosevelt's Success The Price of Peace The Anti-Imperialist League The Foraker Act of 1900 and New Territories The Tense Relationship between Cuba and the US Half-Way around the World - The Philippine-American Relationship A Changed World And much, much more! Some of the topics covered in part 2 of this book include: A Quick Overview The World After Rome Ending a Dynasty - Pepin, Charles, and Carloman The Conquests of Charles In the Name of Religion Pope Leo III and the Founding of an Empire The Carolingian Renaissance - The Empire under Charlemagne The Rule of Louis the Pious Familial Strife and the Decay of the Empire The Division Effectively Ending the Empire Echoes of the Roman Empire - How Outside Forces Picked Apart the Carolingian Empire Lasting Effects and Hope of Reunification And much, much more!
