About the Book
Originally published: Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1931.Book Synopsis
A superbly written narrative of the Spanish-American War, in which Mr. Millis analyzes the causes and motives of the time's leading spirits and recounts the ironies and grotesqueries of the conflict. "A notable contribution to the study of American history and of American character."-Henry Steele Commager.Review Quotes
A complete history of the American people at war which is so well contrived and so wittily written that it puts to shame both the efforts of professional historians and the products of those writers who merely seek to amuse without intending to inform.
A notable contribution to the study of American history and of American character.
A valuable and highly readable case study.
Mr. Millis writes every page well.
