At the dawn of the 20th century, the US Army swiftly occupied Manila and then plunged into a decade-long pacification campaign with striking parallels to war in Iraq. This book shows how this imperial panopticon slowly crushed the Filipino revolutionary movement with a lethal mix of firepower, surveillance, and incriminating information.
