Summary "The Great Round World and What Is Going On In It, Vol. 1, No. 19, March 18, 1897" by William Beverley Harison is a periodical publication aimed at young readers, specifically designed as a weekly newspaper for boys and girls during the late 19th century. The volume reflects the dynamic and tumultuous events of the time, focusing on topics relevant to children while also attempting to educate them about current affairs across the globe. In this issue, the paper discusses significant contemporary events, including the mysterious death of American citizen Dr. Ricardo Ruiz in a Cuban prison, raising questions about Spanish colonial treatment of Cubans and American interests in Cuba. The narrative delves into the implications of U.S. foreign policy in Cuba, as tensions rise between American citizens and Spanish authorities, particularly with the involvement of the American Consul-General. Additionally, the publication covers military conflicts in Greece and Africa, along with lighter stories about animal behavior, immigration issues, and eccentric inventions of the era, painting a broad picture of the varied topics that would interest and engage its young readership.
