A very interesting work by the author.

An outstanding work that was a mandatory listen. As a young Captain, it presented historical information that gave me a better understanding of military leadership and the art of war.

Well written and described.

Wow, this is a very exciting look back on a very significant part of USA history. A part that became America into what it is today.

Everything Here You Can Find.

A very interesting work on a the topic among some people. It handles it fairly on both sides and points out realities that affected the situation.

Interesting but….

If you love the Philippines and want to know more about the USA’s first interactions with them, then you might find this interesting. However, if you are sensitive to learning more about how The USA has behaved dishonorably with another country, I do not recommend Admittedly, there is a strong anti American bias in the text, and this should act as a further deterrent for those not so inclined. Also, pronunciation on the names of many Philippine towns and provinces could have been better.

A good short history on a forgotten subject

Good, 7 hrs, one-volume history of the Spanish-American War and US-Philippine conflict. The only issue I had with it is that it is too big, lol.

Interesting content to follow.

An interesting content that revealed several facts previously unknown. In the end, it showed the hopelessness of war and the more often than not surprising consequences.

An Audible that has everything in it.

I found it very informative but also repetitive in the outcomes. A good awakening to the subject and easy to understand and follow the events

Experience the Spanish-American War Here.

A very precise, very succinct explanation of the reasons for the 1898 Spanish-American War. The effects of the war on Spain's former territories of Cuba, Guam, the Philippines are explored.

Still relevant today

Like all of their audibles, "Captivating History" delivers everything you require to know in a fun and exciting way.

Enjoyable and comprehensive

This is a wonderfully created narrative of the Spanish-American War of 1898. Getting beyond all of the scholarly jargon is entertaining and well-created.
