Description

A study of American anti-imperialist sentiment, focusing on the opposition to Hawaiian annexation, a movement within the U.S. that preceded the anti-imperialism movement after the Spanish American War. The author asserts that commercial reasons were stronger than military reasons in tipping the scales in favor of making Hawaii a U.S. Territory.
