The fight for San Juan Hill took place on July 1, 1898, near Santiago de Cuba, during the Spanish-American War. U.S. Army regulars took the hill itself, while Theodore Roosevelt's Rough Riders charged nearby Kettle Hill, and the two actions became the defining episode of the campaign in the public mind. A theatrical poster on this subject reflects how eagerly audiences of the period embraced dramatized accounts of the war, when stage and print spectacle carried news of distant battles to American crowds.
