Summary "Fighting in Cuban Waters; Or, Under Schley on the Brooklyn" by Edward Stratemeyer is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This narrative is part of the "Old Glory Series," depicting various campaigns during the war with Spain, focusing on the character Walter Russell. The book centers around Walter's adventures as he joins Commodore Schley's flagship, the Brooklyn, and participates in the naval operations that led to significant confrontations, including the blockade of Santiago Bay. The beginning of the story introduces Walter as a young man inspired by the military successes of the U.S. Navy during the war with Spain. Eager to serve his country and follow his brothers into military service, Walter decides to enlist in the navy. As he prepares for this new chapter, he experiences a series of challenges, including a robbery that results in the loss of his travel ticket and belongings. Despite his setbacks, he exhibits bravery and determination, reflecting on the trials that lie ahead as he embarks on a journey filled with rapid developments in naval warfare amidst a backdrop of historical significance.
