Insurrection on Samar Island and U S War Context
A historical reminiscence details Samar Island as part of the Philippine Insurrection. It recalls geography, major towns, and river valleys, and notes American occupation of nearby Iloilo and Leyte. The piece discusses how US political conditions in 1900 affected the war, citing Grant and Bryan, and ends with a letter from W. J. Bryan to Calbayog.
