Philippines:Spanish-American War, 1898 [Author: Alfred F. Kugel]. The United States declared war on Spain on 21st April 1898, and an expeditionary force was assembled in preparation to the occupation of the Philippines. An armistice was signed on 12th August, but a Filipino insurrection led by Emilio Aguinaldo required the presence of a substantial American military force, which finally defeated the rebels on 16th April 1902.

There are three sets of files, each file containing the frames of this exhibit. It was necessary to split some of the files, due to their large size. The first set is made up of two searchable PDF files, which can be read by the Adobe Acrobat Reader (tm). You should be able to read these files on any computer that can handle larger files and images. For more information about PDF files, please review the MPHS description page for PDF files.

The second set contains the entire exhibit with frame display.

The third web page contains the text of all of the frames.
