To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There was an insurrection in 1829, another in 1848, lasting three years, another in 1855, another in 1868 lasting ten years, and another in 1895 now waging. During all this period Spain has been not only a poor mother to Cuba but a bad neighbor to us. The Cuban question is not a new one to us. For a century it has with varying intensity demanded our consid- eration. From Jefferson to Buchanan eight of our Presi- dents have advocated the annexation of Cuba. In 1809 Jefferson prophesied its annex...ation, and in 1823 John Quincy Adams repeated this prophecy. From time to time we have apprehended its acquisition by some other European Power, and we have repeatedly announced that we would not allow this island to pass from Spain to any other Power. The probability that the Holy Alliance and King Ferdinand might make Cuba the base of operation against these revolted South American provinces led to the message of President Monroe, in 1823, which was the official announcement of what is known as the Monroe Doctrine, to-wit, that we will not allow the acquisition by force of any part of this continent ( including Cuba ) by any Euro- pean Government.
