About this ebook
This work presents the details of the part played in the Spanish-American War by the Eighth Regiment, Massachusetts Infantry. It was a peacetime regiment of infantry. The writer delivered some unknown facts about what these soldiers went through, acknowledging their hard work and courage.
The 1898 conflict between the United States and Spain ended Spanish colonial rule in the Americas and resulted in U.S. possession of western Pacific and Latin America territories. The call to arms in this situation did not come unexpectedly. For a few months, it was evident to all the close observers of national affairs that a conflict was almost unavoidable. The government placed itself in a position to allow the country to acquit itself creditably when the time of the clash came. The eighth regiment showed great technique and bravery during those tumultuous circumstances.
