In Bound to Empire , acclaimed historian H.W. Brands gives us a brilliant account of the American involvement in the Philippines in a sweeping narrative filled with analytical insight. Ranging from the Spanish-American War to the fall of Ferdinand Marcos and beyond, Brands deftly weaves together the histories of both nations as he assesses America's great experiment with empire. From Dewey's conquest of Manila, to America's efforts to "civilize" the Filipinos, to the impact of General MacArthur, World War II, and the Cold War, Brands provides insight into the forces and institutions that made American rule what it was, and the Republic of the Philippines what it is today. Brilliantly written and highly informative, Bound to Empire is a perceptive account of a century of empire and its aftermath.
