''Memories Of Two Wars: Cuban And Philippine Experiences'' is a historical book written by Frederick Funston, an American general who served in the Spanish-American War and the Philippine-American War in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The book was originally published in 1911 and provides a firsthand account of Funston’s experiences during these two wars. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part detailing Funston’s time in Cuba during the Spanish-American War. He describes the battles he fought in, the conditions he and his fellow soldiers faced, and the tactics used by both sides. Funston also provides insight into the political climate of the time and the reasons behind the United States’ involvement in the war.The second part of the book focuses on Funston’s experiences in the Philippines during the Philippine-American War. He writes about his interactions with the local population, the challenges of fighting a guerrilla war, and the controversial tactics used by American forces. Funston also provides his perspective on the political and social issues surrounding the conflict.Overall, ''Memories Of Two Wars'' is a valuable historical account of two significant conflicts in American history. Funston’s firsthand experiences provide insight into the realities of war and the complexities of American imperialism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
