Description:
A revealing look at U.S. imperialism through the lens of visual culture and portraiture
In 1898, the United States seized territories overseas, ushering in an era of expansion that was at odds with the nation's founding promise of freedom and democracy for all. This book draws on portraiture and visual culture to provide fresh perspectives on this crucial yet underappreciated period in history.
Tana Caragol and Kate Clarke Lemay tell the story of 1898 by bringing together portraits of U.S. figures who favored overseas expansion, such as William McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt, with those of leading figures who resisted colonization, including Eugenio Mara de Hostos of Puerto Rico; Jose Mart of Cuba; Felipe Agoncillo of the Philippines; Padre Jose Bernardo Palomo of Guam; and Queen Lili'uokalani of Hawai'i. Throughout the book, Caragol and Lemay also look at landscapes, naval scenes, and ephemera. They consider works of art by important period artists Winslow Homer and Armando Menocal as well as contemporary artists such as Maia Cruz Palileo, Stephanie Syjuco, and Miguel Luciano. Paul A. Kramer's essay addresses the role of the Smithsonian Institution in supporting imperialism, and texts by Jorge Duany, Theodore S. Gonzalves, Kristin L. Hoganson, Healoha Johnston, and Neil Weare offer critical perspectives by experts with close personal or scholarly relations to the island regions.
Beautifully illustrated, 1898: Visual Culture and U.S. Imperialism in the Caribbean and the Pacific challenges us to reconsider the Spanish-American War, the Philippine-American War, and the annexation of Hawai'i whi

Planning on sharing the ones I didn’t care for.
I feel I have to give this a five star rating because it did come just as described, my only negative is my own personal fragrance choices. I only found two that I liked one of which I already had. I can’t take stars off for that because others may absolutely love the rest, but I can tell you that the packaging was just as seen, and it came well protected.

Terrible scents
Style: 6 Piece Discovery Set 2
If you want to smell like an old lady, this is the perfume set for you. The only semi okay scent is Santal, all the rest are unwearable and smell terrible.
