“For this generation this study is definitive.” ―George Osborn, American Historical Review

In April 1914 three minor incidents occurred in Mexico: the arrest of several American sailors, the detention of a mail courier, and the delay of an official Department of State dispatch. Less than two weeks later, United States military forces landed at Veracruz and remained to occupy it for more than six months. What were the causes underlying this action, and what was the United States trying to achieve? Robert Quirk examines the motives which led Woodrow Wilson to this decision, the reasons for its failure, and its consequences for the United States’ relations with Latin America.

A detailed description of events in 1914 and the decision-making process during the Wilson administration. Sheds light on the contributions made by the three services during this time period. Offers readers a look at how U.S. leaders and policymakers dealt with a regional challenge prior to World War I.

A great scholarly monograph about an under-examined episode in the history of U.S.-Latin American relations. I highly recommend for use in college history classes.
