Tracing the intricate development of U.S. colonial policy in the Philippines, the author probes the hidden forces behind American objectives that continuously transformed these two nations. The riveting historical account follows McKinley's administration through Philippine independence. In the moving final passage of this work, Golay concludes that the U.S., a country he dearly loved, had betrayed its own well-intentioned effort at colonial development by dictating dishonorable terms of independence on an infant republic.
