Since it dragged on, Americans fiercely debated U.S. involvement; the country had a deep tradition of avoiding foreign wars. However the Spanish-American War had challenged this tradition, and the First World War would shatter it. AMERICA at War Series is a assortment of presentations that review the political, economic, and social forces that have erupted in military conflict. They describe the historical context for each of the nine major U.S. wars and examine what sort of military conflict resolved, or didn't resolve, the forces that caused the war.
