EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Matteawan Docking, Afternoon of June 9th, Spanish-American War, 1898" captures a significant moment in American history. Taken by journalist and photographer William Burr McIntosh during his coverage of the war for "Leslies Weekly" this image showcases American soldiers aboard a troopship at Port Tampa, Florida. In the photograph, we see the troops preparing to depart for Cuba, their faces filled with determination and anticipation. The ship stands tall against the backdrop of Tampa Bay's serene waters. The black-and-white composition adds a sense of timelessness to the scene, transporting us back to the late 19th century. McIntosh's documentation of this pivotal event in American military history is both informative and poignant. His photographs provide an invaluable visual record that allows us to glimpse into the past and understand the sacrifices made by these brave men who fought for their country. This particular print is part of McIntosh's book "The Little I saw of Cuba" where he shared his experiences as a reporter and photographer during the Spanish-American War. It serves as a testament to his dedication as both an actor and journalist who ventured into dangerous territories to bring stories from far-flung places. As we observe this image today, it reminds us not only of our nation's rich history but also pays tribute to those who have served in times of conflict.
