1. 1. The True Flag

   Theodore Roosevelt, Mark Twain, and the Birth of American Empire

   

   A concise narrative of the United States’ turn to overseas empire at the turn of the 20th century, centered on the aftermath of the Spanish‑American War and the contentious decision to annex the Philippines; it profiles the hawkish politicians and military figures who pushed expansion and the outspoken intellectuals and activists who resisted, explores the military campaign and political battles at home, and traces how arguments about commerce, race, civilization and national destiny produced moral dilemmas and long-term consequences for America’s global role.
