  
In one of his famous “Mr. Dooley” columns of 1898, American journalist Finley Peter Dunne, an anti-imperialist, wrote that the Americans were just discovering whether the Philippines “were islands or canned goods”. The American image of the Philippine was shaped in large part by photographs of the Philippine-American War. This book features 68 stereoscopic cards of the war, each consisting of two identical photographs that fuse into a single three-dimensional picture when viewed from a stereopticon.
