Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Cuba and International Relations: A Historical Study in American Diplomacy
Southern and Cuban slaveholders. _soon Texas came as a State to the United States, and the disagreement as to the boundary led to the unrolling of the American map to the Pacific, giving rise to new discussions concerning transit routes through Mexico and Central America, and as to the controlling position of Cuba in protecting these routes. From 1848 until the sounding of the alarm-gong of the Civil War, Cuba was continually a subject of international dispute or negotiation. The irritation produced by filibus tering was increased by the proposed Cuban reforms in slave labor, and by acts of Spanish o?icials toward American ves sels, until the war clouds at one time hovered along the border.
