520 _a"Springfield in the Spanish American War" by Walter W. Ward is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work focuses on the involvement of Springfield, Massachusetts, and its citizen-soldiers during the Spanish-American War of 1898. The narrative aims to honor the local soldiers, recounting their experiences, hardships, and contributions to a war that significantly impacted the United States. The beginning of this historical account presents a heartfelt introduction by the author, who reflects on Springfield's rich military tradition and the valor of its soldiers throughout American history. Ward emphasizes how the citizens of Springfield rallied once again to support the nation during the Spanish-American War, detailing the formation and mobilization of local militia companies in response to the call for troops. The preface highlights the sacrifices made by soldiers from Springfield who fought in notable battles and honors those who fell while serving their country.
