Today is august thirteenth, eighteen ninety-eight, the mock battle of Manila.
voice-verified
It's five AM on may first, eighteen ninety eight, just outside Manila Bay in the Philippines, two and a half months after the sinking of the USS Maine.

As dawn begins to brighten the sky above the bridge of USS Olympia, Commodore George Dewey raises a telescope to his eye.
voice-verified
More than two miles away, a Spanish squadron lies at anchor in the shallow waters near the coast.

Relations between the United States and Spain have been deteriorating for years.
voice-verified
The main point of contention is Cuba.
voice-verified

voice-verified

voice-verified

voice-verified
