On the Waves of Empire: U.S. Imperialism and Merchant Sailors, 1872-1924 - Working Class in American History
William D. Riddell
In the aftermath of the Spanish-American War, the United States’ acquisition of an overseas empire compelled the nation to reconsider the boundary between domestic and foreign--and between nation and empire. William D. Riddell looks at the experiences of merchant sailors and labor organizations to illuminate how domestic class conflict influenced America’s emerging imperial system.
