Spanish–American War

The Spanish–American War (Spanish: Guerra hispano-estadounidense) was a conflict in 1898 between Spain and the United States, the result of U.S. intervention in the Cuban War of Independence. U.S. attacks on Spain's Pacific possessions led to involvement in the Philippine Revolution and ultimately to the Philippine–American War.

Revolts against Spanish rule had been occurring for some years in Cuba. There had been war scares before, as in the Virginius Affair in 1873. In the late 1890s, US public opinion was agitated by anti-Spanish propaganda led by journalists such as Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst which used yellow journalism to call for war. However, the Hearst and Pulitzer papers circulated among the working class in New York City and did not reach a national audience. Historians of the 1930s blamed them for stirring up a war frenzy but more recent scholars have not accepted that theory.

After the mysterious sinking of the US Navy battleship Maine in Havana harbor, political pressures from the Democratic Party pushed the administration of Republican President William McKinley into a war he had wished to avoid. Spain promised time and again it would reform but never delivered. The United States sent an ultimatum to Spain demanding it surrender control of Cuba. First Madrid, then Washington, formally declared war.

Timeline of United States military operations

This is a timeline of United States government military operations. The list through 1775 is based on Committee on International Relations (now known as the House Committee on Foreign Affairs). Dates show the years in which U.S. government military units participated. Items in bold are the U.S. government wars most often considered to be major conflicts by historians and the general public. Note that instances where the U.S. government gave aid alone, with no military personnel involvement, are excluded, as are Central Intelligence Agency operations.

Extraterritorial and major domestic deployments

Portions of this list are from the Congressional Research Service report RL30172.

1775–1799

1775–83American Revolutionary War: an armed struggle for secession from the British Empire by the Thirteen Colonies that would subsequently become the United States.

1776–77Second Cherokee War: a series of armed conflicts when the Cherokee fought to prevent the encroachment of American settlers into eastern Tennessee and eastern Kentucky; under British rule, this land had been preserved as native territory.

Spanish Americans

Spanish Americans (Spanish: español-americanos, hispano-americanos or estadounidenses de origen español) are Americans whose ancestry originates wholly or partly from Spain.

Spanish Americans are the longest-established European-American group with a continuous presence in Florida since 1565 and are the eighth-largest (choosing the term "Spaniard") Hispanic group in the United States of America. About 50.5 million Americans are of Latin American descent and therefore many having Spanish ancestry due to Spanish colonialism, although the term "Spanish-American" is used only to refer to Americans whose ancestry originates entirely or partially from Spain.

Immigration waves

In colonial times, there were a number of white settlements of Spanish populations in the present–day United States of America with governments answerable to Madrid. The first settlement was at St. Augustine, Florida, in 1565, followed by others in New Mexico, California, Arizona, Texas, and Louisiana. In 1598, San Juan de los Caballeros was established, near present-day Santa Fe, New Mexico, by Juan de Oñate and about 1,000 other Spaniards. Spanish immigrants also established settlements in San Diego, California (1602), San Antonio, Texas (1691) and Tucson, Arizona (1699). By the mid-1600s the Spanish in America numbered more than 400,000.

    For months, William Randolph Hearst’s newspapers reported the drama and increasing tension in Cuba, with little regard for the truth. When, on April 20, 1898, President McKinley asked for a declaration of war, Hearst was more than happy to take the credit. His papers read: “How do you like The Journal’s war?” The Spanish-American War was a victory for Hearst, whose paper stood atop the New York market when all was said and done. Official Website: https://to.pbs.org/3yhHK9o | #CitizenHearstPBS In the 1930s, William Randolph Hearst’s media empire included 28 newspapers, a movie studio, a syndicated wire service, radio stations and 13 magazines. Nearly one in four American families read a Hearst publication. His newspapers were so influential that Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Winston ...

Abe Holzmann (1874-1939): Marsch „Blaze-Away!“ Orgelbearbeitung: Gabriel Dessauer in: "Die heitere Königin - Heitere Orgelmusik", Band 1, Musikverlag Dr. Butz (Bonn), BU 1690 Abraham („Abe“) Holzmann wurde 1874 in New York City geboren und starb 1939 im Alter von 64 Jahren in East Orange, New Jersey. Seine Eltern waren Jacob Holzmann, ein ungarisch-jüdischer Einwanderer, und Isabella Holzmann, eine gebürtige Amerikanerin aus Louisiana. Der junge Holzmann studierte Musik in Deutschland. Eine Rezension, die im Jahre 1901 im „New York Herald“ unter dem Titel „Deutscher Komponist schreibt amerikanische Cakewalk-Musik“ veröffentlicht wurde, beschreibt: „Seine Kenntnisse von Harmonielehre und Kontrapunkt sind profund, und seine Standardkompositionen zeichnen sich durch eher traditionelle Harmonien aus. Umso bemerkenswerter ist seine Vorliebe für Kompositionen im populären Musikstil." Seine Musik wurde besonders von Ragtime-Enthusiasten verehrt, obwohl er Märsche, Walzer und andere Unterhaltungsmusik komponierte. Holzmanns Two-Step-Marsch „Blaze-Away“ („Losschießen!“) aus dem Jahre 1901 ist möglicherweise eine Hommage an das US-Kavallerie-Regiment „Rough Riders“ im Spanisch-Amerikanischen Krieg 1898 unter Leitung von Oberst Theodore Roosevelt, des späteren US-Präsidenten. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Abe Holzmann (1874-1939): March „Blaze-Away!“ Arr. for organ: Gabriel Dessauer in: "Die heitere Königin - Heitere Orgelmusik", Vol. 1, Musikverlag Dr. Butz (Bonn), BU 1690 Abraham (“Abe“) Holzmann was born in New York City in 1874 and died in East Orange, New Jersey 1939 at age 64. His parents were Jacob Holzmann, a Hungarian-Jewish immigrant and Isabella Holzmann, a native of Louisiana. The young Holzmann learned music in Germany. A review originally published by the “New York Herald“ in 1901, entitled "German Composer who writes American Cakewalk Music“, describes "his knowledge of bass and counterpoint is thorough, and his standard compositions bear the stamp of harmonic lore, which makes his proclivity for the writing of the popular style of music the more remarkable." His music was especially revered by ragtime enthusiasts, although he composed marches, waltzes, and other light music. Holzmann's two-step march "Blaze-Away" from 1901 is possibly a homage to the US cavalry regiment "Rough Riders" in the Spanish-American War in 1898 under the leadership of Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, the later US President.

For months, William Randolph Hearst’s newspapers reported the drama and increasing tension in Cuba, with little regard for the truth. When, on April 20, 1898, President McKinley asked for a declaration of war, Hearst was more than happy to take the credit. His papers read: “How do you like The Journal’s war?” The Spanish-American War was a victory for Hearst, whose paper stood atop the New York market when all was said and done. Official Website: https://to.pbs.org/3yhHK9o | #CitizenHearstPBS In the 1930s, William Randolph Hearst’s media empire included 28 newspapers, a movie studio, a syndicated wire service, radio stations and 13 magazines. Nearly one in four American families read a Hearst publication. His newspapers were so influential that Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Winston Churchill all wrote for him. The first practitioner of what is now known as “synergy,” Hearst used his media stronghold to achieve unprecedented political power, then ran for office himself. After serving two terms in Congress, he came in second in the balloting for the Democratic presidential nomination in 1904. Perhaps best known as the inspiration for Orson Welles’ Citizen Kane and his lavish castle in San Simeon, Hearst died in 1951 at the age of 88, having transformed the media’s role in American life and politics. The two-part, four-hour film is based on historian David Nasaw’s critically acclaimed biography, “The Chief: The Life of William Randolph Hearst.” This program is made possible by viewers like you.

Spanish–American War

The Spanish–American War (Spanish: Guerra hispano-estadounidense) was a conflict in 1898 between Spain and the United States, the result of U.S. intervention in the Cuban War of Independence. U.S. attacks on Spain's Pacific possessions led to involvement in the Philippine Revolution and ultimately to the Philippine–American War.

Revolts against Spanish rule had been occurring for some years in Cuba. There had been war scares before, as in the Virginius Affair in 1873. In the late 1890s, US public opinion was agitated by anti-Spanish propaganda led by journalists such as Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst which used yellow journalism to call for war. However, the Hearst and Pulitzer papers circulated among the working class in New York City and did not reach a national audience. Historians of the 1930s blamed them for stirring up a war frenzy but more recent scholars have not accepted that theory.

After the mysterious sinking of the US Navy battleship Maine in Havana harbor, political pressures from the Democratic Party pushed the administration of Republican President William McKinley into a war he had wished to avoid. Spain promised time and again it would reform but never delivered. The United States sent an ultimatum to Spain demanding it surrender control of Cuba. First Madrid, then Washington, formally declared war.
