1879 marked the beginning of one of the longest, bloodiest conflicts of nineteenth-century Latin America.

Sater offers the definitive analysis of the conflict's naval and military campaigns.
Traces the often stormy course of US-Chilean relations, covering not only policy decisions but also the overall political, cultural and economic developments that formed the context in which these policies unfolded.
