Abstract
The United States declares war on Spain in April of 1898. Anti-imperialists in Congress attach the Teller Amendment to the war resolution stating that the U.S. will not annex Cuba. The support of Cuban guerillas and Spain's lack of military prowess contribute to the brevity and success of the U. S. war effort--a unified effort involving soldiers from both the North and South. Black soldiers receive little recognition for the significant role they play, particularly in protecting the Rough Riders.
