While it’s mindboggling to fathom anyone labeling a war “splendid,” a high-ranking American official used that term to describe the Spanish American War in 1898. If any slivers of splendor existed in the grim brutalities of war, they were frequently on display in the remarkable actions of brave women who nursed their fallen warriors, reported conditions on the battlefields, fought on behalf of fervently-held causes, and protested questionable actions of their governments. Today most Americans are aware of Teddy Roosevelt and the Rough Riders. Even casual historians recall the chant “Remember the Maine, to hell with Spain!” The role of horses and mules in the war have sparked attention. And the exploits of several dogs have been documented.
However, in the quest for shining examples of splendor, high motives, and magnificent intelligence and spirit during the Spanish American War, the accomplishments of some extraordinary individuals have been overlooked and deserve recognition. Women of The Spanish-American War brings to light their stories of relentless courage and selflessness.
