This is the military history of the 3 wars that swept through the Philippines in the late nineteenth century: the Philippine Revolutionary Wars of 1896-97, the Spanish-American War in the Philippines in 1898,and the Filipino- American War 1899-1902.The military history of these wars are grimly recounted in detail and sketches of the corresponding political backdrops are provided.
The events that led to the Philippine Revolution of 1896 are showcased and the battles fought between the Spanish forces and the rebels are described together with the enumeration of combat casualties, tallies generally not mentioned in modern history books about this period. The Filipino-American War features the military commissions established by the U.S. Army throughout the archipelago to deal with the difficult guerrilla war that the Filipino Army resorted to after its many defeats in pitched battles with the Americans.These military commissions will bear similarities to the commissions being planned by the Department of Defense for the Guantanamo detainees. Atrocities were committed by all sides and are included in this work.
