Organizing Crime in Chinatown: Race and Racketeering in New York City, 1890-1910
A really good book covering an obscure period that most people only know from the Teddy Roosevelt mythology.
The history is reasonably detailed, the Battles well laid out, the opposing forces are written about in a non-biased way. The Spanish equipment was surprisingly effective. The United States got lucky in a lot of ways. Not really worth wargaming, but I like reading up on little known wars.
