A Defence of General Funston
A Defence of General Funston is a humour piece written by Mark Twain in honor of US Army General and expansionism advocate Frederick Funston. Funston had been a colonel in the Spanish-American and Philippine-American Wars, and Twain had been an outspoken critic of these wars, as immoral ventures of the American state into the imperialist subjugation of foreign peoples and territories.
