Summary "The Great Round World and What Is Going On In It, Vol. 1, No. 15, February 18, 1897" by William Beverley Harison is a weekly newspaper designed for a younger audience, published in the late 19th century. This publication addresses various events and topics—historical, political, and social—relevant to its young readers, aiming to educate them about current affairs in an engaging and accessible manner. The edition covers significant issues of its time, including the ongoing discussions about the Nicaragua Canal and its potential implications for international relations, particularly between the United States and England. It elaborates on the complexities surrounding the construction of the canal, contrasting it with the failed Panama Canal project, and elaborates on the political tensions associated with the ownership and control of such an important maritime route. Additionally, the newspaper touches on other events, including the results of the Cuban rebellion, the conditions of tenement houses in New York, and societal efforts to improve the lives of the impoverished, illustrating a vibrant and troubling social landscape of the era. Through these stories, Harison delivers informing content that promotes civic awareness and responsibility among young readers. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
