He examines the roles of key actorsthe generals and presidents, the soldiers and senatorsin Americas colonial adventure.The most thorough, balanced, and wellwritten study to date of Americas imperial adventure in the western Pacific and the most persuasive analysis of the varied reactions of the American people to the military subjugation of the Filipinos. . . . [Told] with clarity, wit and a talent for the apt quotation.Richard E. Welch, Jr., The New York Times Book ReviewA triumph of research, synthesis and storytelling, this is the wisest book on its subject and, implicitly, a significant cultural critique of the United States at the turn of the century.Peter Stanley, AsiaThe authors balanced summary of the historiography of imperialism and the epilogue, which considers the Philippine/Vietnam analogy, are valuable features of the work. . . . Should remain the definitive account of these events.Library JournalWritten with clarity and argued with passion from a wealth of primary sources.Jack C. Lane, The Journal of American History
