Product Description
150 photographs & maps & illustrations & 5 x 8 & After completing his critically-acclaimed, two-volume Civil War Flag books, Advance the Colors!, Richard Sauers conducted research on Pennsylvania Regiments and their flags in the Spanish-American War. The Spanish-American Flags are housed at the Capitol Preservation Committee's flag facility. The United States declared war against Spain in April 1898. More than 17,000 Pennsylvanians answered the call to arms. One regiment served in the Philippines, while several other units fought in Puerto Rico. A dozen Pennsylvanians earned the Congressional Medal of Honor, and many leading war correspondents also came from the Keystone State. This book covers the gamut of Pennsylvania's role in this overlooked conflict--from stories of misery and disease in camp to accounts of heroism at sea and on land. More than 150 photographs, many of which have never been published, complement the text along with maps, bibliography and an index.
