    Harry Collings Misinterpreting The Monroe Doctrine

    President William McKinley was deeply ambivalent about the war against Spain. To justify the use of weapons in the far Pacific, for the occasion he sacrificed his pacifist tendencies in the name of national interest and evoked the injustice done to the Filipino people and the moral duty that requires the United States to go to the rescue.

This initiative is not at all a surprise.…

The little bit larger Spanish fleet was completely taken by surprise. Several of the Spanish ships were so old and rotting that they could barely float.…
