{"value"=>"<p>The Spanish-American War Series of articles (1899-1901), modeled on the Civil War Series, proved less successful than its celebrated predecessor. Series V contains first and secondhand accounts of events in the Spanish-American War, replies to requests for articles, and commentary from readers on the <span class=\"title\">Century</span>’s coverage of the War. Letters from Howard Freeman Sprague, who was commissioned to provide illustrations for the magazine, include descriptions of life onboard the <em>Saint Paul</em>, accounts of engagements in the War - with drawings, and references to yellow fever amongst the soldiers.</p>"}
