Abstract
Filmed a century after the USS Maine exploded in Havana Harbor, this program narrated by Edward James Olmos examines the events and attitudes that led to the Spanish-American War, followed by an exploration of the conflict and its outcome. Early film footage and period photographs of battle scenes, interviews with some of America’s most prominent historians, and intriguing analogies to late-20th-century foreign policy make Crucible of Empire an essential documentary on the watershed event that transformed the U.S. into a world power.
