Annual report of the Major-General Commanding the Army to the Secretary of War, 1898.

This is the title page of the Annual Report submitted by the Major-General Commanding the Army to the Secretary of War for the fiscal year ending in 1898. This specific year is highly significant in American military history as it encompasses the duration of the Spanish-American War and the subsequent beginning of the Philippine-American War. The report would detail the operations, strength, and logistical issues of the U.S. Army during a pivotal period of global expansion and conflict, including the establishment of American military presence in the Philippines. The document's presence in the Silliman University Library suggests its relevance to the institution's historical context, as Silliman University was founded in Dumaguete in 1901 during the early years of American administration in the Philippines.

The book is considered valuable. It is advised that researchers use digital copy rather than physical books for preservation purposes. 676 pages : illustrations ; photographs ; maps ; tables APA Citation: Miles, N. A. (1898).
