Bag om The Military And Colonial Policy Of The United States

The book ""The Military and Colonial Policy of the United States: Addresses and Reports"" by Elihu Root is a comprehensive analysis of the military and colonial policies pursued by the United States government during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Root, who served as Secretary of War and Secretary of State under Presidents McKinley and Roosevelt, provides a firsthand account of the strategies and decisions made by the government during this critical period in American history.The book is divided into several sections, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of American military and colonial policy. In the first section, Root discusses the role of the military in maintaining the country's security and protecting its interests abroad. He examines the challenges faced by the military during the Spanish-American War and the subsequent occupation of Cuba and the Philippines.The second section of the book focuses on the colonial policies pursued by the United States during this period. Root discusses the challenges of governing newly acquired territories, such as Puerto Rico and Guam, and the debates over whether these territories should be granted statehood or independence.The final section of the book includes a series of reports and speeches given by Root during his time as Secretary of War and Secretary of State. These documents provide valuable insights into the thinking and decision-making processes of the American government during this period.Overall, ""The Military and Colonial Policy of the United States: Addresses and Reports"" is an important historical document that sheds light on the complex and often controversial policies pursued by the American government during the early 20th century. Root's firsthand account provides valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities faced by the United States as it emerged as a global superpower.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
