McCutcheon-Feuer offers a vivid account of America's war in the Philippine Islands during the early part of the 20th century. This story highlights the experiences of the American soldiers, sailors, and marines who participated in the major battles. Not only did they fight a determined enemy, they also battled the weather, the jungle, and the diseases that threatened to take their lives. Their writings, including a section of poems and songs of the era, reveal the thoughts and anxieties of the American fighting man, serving his country nearly 8, 000 miles from home. In 1895 Emilio Aguinaldo became the leader of Katipunan, a revolutionary society that sought complete independence from Spain. A year later, his ragtag band of soldiers defeated a Spanish regiment, a victory that incited the Filipino people to rise up against their oppressors. While the Spanish ultimately paid Aguinaldo to enter voluntary exile, in 1898, after the sinking of the ^IMaine^R, the United States would promise independence for the islands in exchange for Aguinaldo's return to lead an uprising against Spain. The U.S. State Department would later repudiate this promise, a move that would embroil United States troops in a bloody struggle to subdue the islands. This is their story. 606 $aSpanish-American War, 1898$xCampaigns$zPhilippines$vSources 607 $aPhilippines$xHistory, Military$y19th century$vSources 607 $aPhilippines$xHistory, Military$y20th century$vSources 607 $aPhilippines$xHistory$yPhilippine American War, 1899-1902$vPersonal narratives 607 $aPhilippines$xHistory$y1898-1946$vSources 615 0$aSpanish-American War, 1898$xCampaigns 676 $a959.9/03 701 $aFeuer$b A.
