In this lecture I will discuss the conflict of the Spanish-American War of 1898 which led to the United States becoming an imperial power in the world.

For Thursday's class, please research historical questions on your own such as the following: What was the Spanish-American War? What is yellow journalism? What was the USS Maine incident that started the war? Why was the war called the “Splendid Little War”? Who were the Rough Riders? Who was Teddy Roosevelt? Who was Commodore George Dewey? What famous hill did the Rough Riders storm in Cuba? Who was Dr. Walter Reed? What is the Platt Amendment? What was the open door policy? What is the Boxer Rebellion in China?

This week, I will also remind students that a first online exam will take place the following week.
