War Time In Manila is a historical account of the American occupation of the Philippines during the Spanish-American War and the subsequent Philippine-American War. Written by Bradley Allen Fiske, a United States Navy officer who served in the Philippines during this period, the book provides a firsthand perspective on the military and political events that shaped the region during the early 20th century.Fiske's narrative begins with the American capture of Manila from the Spanish in 1898 and follows the subsequent efforts to establish American control over the Philippines. He describes the challenges faced by American military leaders, including the guerrilla warfare tactics employed by Filipino rebels and the difficulties of governing a diverse and complex society.Throughout the book, Fiske provides insight into the personalities and motivations of key figures involved in the conflict, including General Emilio Aguinaldo, the leader of the Philippine independence movement, and General Arthur MacArthur, the father of future US president Douglas MacArthur. He also offers his own opinions on the effectiveness of American military strategy and the potential for a peaceful resolution to the conflict.War Time In Manila is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the Philippines and the role of the United States in shaping its political and social landscape. Fiske's firsthand account provides a unique and insightful perspective on this pivotal period in Philippine and American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
