Summary "Our War with Spain for Cuba's Freedom" by Trumbull White is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The book explores the complex relationships and events surrounding the American intervention in the Spanish-Cuban conflict, focusing on themes of liberty and oppression. It highlights not only the military operations against Spain but also delves into Cuban history, culture, and the suffering experienced under Spanish rule, ultimately framing the conflict as a righteous struggle for freedom. The opening of the book sets the stage by detailing the dire situation in Cuba prior to American involvement. It introduces the reader to the circumstances that led to the outbreak of hostilities, touching on the oppressive Spanish governance and the burgeoning desire for independence among the Cuban people. White provides a vivid description of American sentiments regarding the war and the aftermath of the tragic explosion of the USS Maine, which galvanized public opinion. The text also discusses the political maneuvers and military preparations as the U.S. government responded to the pressing need to support Cuban patriots in their fight against Spanish tyranny.
