President Mckinley and American Imperialism

By John W Miller

Book Overview

President McKinley actively sought territorial expansion during his tenure as President of the United States as a means to simulate the domestic economy and increase American international prestige. This expansion was critical to the continued economic growth of the United States and its emergence as a world power. This report looks at McKinley's expansionist foreign policy and asserts it was tied directly to attaining economic markets and prosperity for the United States and not, as commonly believed, a moral duty to help our Filipino brothers.

Not a book-rather an article

Expected an extended discussion of McKinleys political and economic actions. Instead a research report prepared as a graduation requirement. Basically a college graduates thesis printed and published for a quick buck by Hudson Street Press.
