Critical Thinking Questions  
 
 
What conclusions can be drawn from the extent of U.S. military operations in the Spanish-American War about the McKinley administration’s determination to win?




Does the tally of victories seem lopsided or unbalanced? If so, how? Why do you think this imbalance occurred?




Examine the battle lines in the inset map of Santiago. What does the line of Spanish naval movement away from Santiago harbor suggest about the Spanish position after the June and July land battles in and around Santiago? About the balance between American and Spanish power?
