About this title

Synopsis

If you want to discover the captivating history of the Philippine-American War between 1899-1902, then keep reading...

The Philippine-American War of 1899-1902 was a dramatic, world-changing conflict that shaped the century to come and revealed the early stirrings of America's drive for global power. The conflict and its aftershocks continue to influence the Philippines and the wider region to this day, leaving a legacy of governance, society, and economic organization.

The Philippines today is an important American ally and a counterbalance to the growing Chinese power in South Asia, but the history between the United States and the Philippines has not always been as friendly as some may imagine--in fact, American-Filipino history is soaked in blood and defined by brutal, devastating combat.

The Philippine-American War is, perhaps, something that many Americans and Filipinos would like to forget about, particularly in light of Filipino-American cooperation against the Japanese invasion of the Philippines in the Second World War, but it's vital to study and understand the Philippine-American War in order to see a clear picture of what led to the world we know today and comprehend the scale of imperialism and military conquest that has defined the past centuries.

In The Philippine-American War (1899-1902): 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, you will discover topics such as

Manifest Destiny vs. Self-Determination
