Synopsis

This book is a collection of editorials that touch on some of the most controversial issues of the day. Written in the years following the Spanish-American War when the United States was exercising its newfound imperial power, the author takes a critical look at the expansion of the military, the role of trusts, and the news media’s coverage of war. The book also includes the author’s thoughts on labor unions, imperialism, and the future of American democracy. The editorials are a reminder of the long struggle for social justice and the importance of vigilance in the face of government overreach.
