The progressive reading of history focuses on two major antecedents for the origins of the United States 1898 war with Spain: the 1896 presidential election and the Hearst-Puliter press war that, reportedly, generated an irresistible clamor from an aroused public. Underlying those narratives are two very different theoretical frameworks: a class-dominance view and that of the mass society. Volume 1 of President McKinley, War and Empire assesses the adequacy of those readings.Hamilton, Richard F. is the author of 'President Mckinley, War And Empire President Mckinley And the Coming of War, 1898', published 2006 under ISBN 9780765803290 and ISBN 0765803291.
