The Imperial Cruise by James Bradley Book Summary

In 1905 President Teddy Roosevelt dispatched Secretary of War William Howard Taft on the largest U.S. diplomatic mission in history to Hawaii, Japan, the Philippines, China, and Korea. Roosevelt's glamorous twenty-one year old daughter Alice served as mistress of the cruise, which included senators and congressmen. On this trip, Taft concluded secret agreements in Roosevelt's name.

In 2005, a century later, James Bradley traveled in the wake of Roosevelt's mission and discovered what had transpired in Honolulu, Tokyo, Manila, Beijing and Seoul.

In 1905, Roosevelt was bully-confident and made secret agreements that he though would secure America's westward push into the Pacific. Instead, he lit the long fuse on the Asian firecrackers that would singe America's hands for a century.

Excellent. Bradley, again captures my attention and bombards me with questions about the history of the Pacific War. Only this time, the history goes farther back, past the beginnings of Japanese expansion, and to the colonization of the Philippines, the Conquest of Hawaii and westernization of Feudal Japan. Again providing us with extensive research, Bradley makes us think about our nation's past and how it's actions are both in the wrong in today's eyes, but called for in it's time. Not only does it do that, but it expands our ever-growing knowledge. To history-lovers like myself, this is a gold mine. No other book serves to provide a full history of the US presence in the Pacific and can relate it to both World War II (Bradley's first topic of study) and today. I very much enjoyed this book and I hope you do too. I highly recommend it.

The Imperial Cruise. Basically a political diatribe by a writer committed to condemning Roosevelt by judging him under current politically correct standards with no sense at all about the era and mentality of the time. There is actually not much about the cruise but plenty about how malevolent Teddy Roosevelt was.

I can't believe I paid for this. I am very upset that I actually paid for this book. I should have borrowed it from the library or from a friend or downloaded it illegally so the author didn't get credit for a sale and get royalties from me. What a load of garbage this book is. I bought it because I had read Bradley's other books. I feel like he was setting us up with his previous works so he could then write this book with his true feelings. There aren't any reputable historians who agree with Bradley's version of events. He takes comments and quotes out of context and assigns his own biases to everything he selectively chooses to include in the book. I'm guessing from the other readers who rated this book 5 stars that this book probably fit very well with their political beliefs and view of America. If you are a sane person who doesn't hate this country, you will not like this book.
