Naval War College Historical Monograph Series 16, originally published in April 2009. This book reprints a diary found in the Naval War College archives of Joseph K Taussig, a distinguished U.S. naval officer, kept when as a naval cadet (midshipman and junior officer) he participated in the Spanish-American War, Philippine Insurrection, and Boxer Rebellion. The text is supported by helpful editorial notes and introduction, as well as by numerous period photographs and the diarist's sketches of the scenes and events.
