Writing to exercise our understanding. The paragraph that follows contains some vague, incorrect, or illogical arguments. Revise the paragraph to strengthen the passage - perhaps make it into three short paragraphs. > //The United States could no longer be isolated by the rest of the world.

Read "The Spanish American War", which is Chapter 20, Section 2 of your textbook. Download the reading as necessary. While you read, complete the [|study guide].
