Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book scrutinizes the motivations and implications of the Spanish-American War, which propelled America into a global empire. The book argues that the war was not merely an intervention to liberate Cuba, as the U.S. government claimed, but arose from a combination of domestic pressures, including economic interests, rampant jingoism, and political aspirations to expand the nation's power and influence. Through this historical narrative, the author meticulously examines the complex interplay of factors leading to the war, challenging the popular portrayal of America as a benevolent liberator. The book contributes a nuanced understanding of the complexities and long-term effects of the Spanish-American War, highlighting the continuing relevance of its lessons in shaping America's foreign policy and global standing.
