The United States Navy in the Pacific, 1897-1909

William Reynolds Braisted

4.9/5 (12144 ratings)

Description:This is the story of the twelve important years during which the U.S. Navy won an undisputed place as a major force in the Pacific, and a consideration of the interrelationship of naval and diplomatic policies which brought this about.Professor Braisted's highly readable study covers an area of American naval history which, to a considerable degree, has been neglected, minimized, or misinterpreted. With sound scholarship and imaginative insight he relates in detail the conquest of Hawaii and the Philippines, the Boxer Rebellion and our Open-Door policy in China, the Russo-Japanese War, the maturation of the diplomatic policy of the United States in the Pacific area, and, finally, relations between America and a newly imperialistic Japan, climaxed by Theodore Roosevelt's "Big Stick" Navy world cruise, pointing toward events of the first and second world wars.American diplomatic history too often has been written without adequate attention to economic, military, intellectual, and other motivating factors behind foreign policy, and the study of our naval history too often has been limited to a narrow consideration of wars and campaigns without attention to the navy's continuing influence on foreign and domestic affairs in time of peace. Professor Braisted has avoided both of these pitfalls. He displays considerable literary talent in his perceptive portraits of leading military and political figures of the times.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
