    A SICKLY LITTLE WAR: EPIDEMIC DISEASE, MILITARY CAMPAIGNS, AND THE SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR By Mark A. Youngren A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of History – Doctor of Philosophy 2016 ABSTRACT A SICKLY LITTLE WAR: EPIDEMIC DISEASE, MILITARY CAMPAIGNS, AND THE SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR By Mark A. Youngren Before the twentieth century, disease killed more people during military operations than enemy action. This was particularly the case when soldiers from the temperate regions of Europe and North America were sent to fight in the tropical regions of the world, where they faced a disease environment filled with pathogens against which they possessed no natural defenses. The fear of epidemic disease was a constant companion for senior commanders down to the lowliest soldier, affecting when, where, and how the war was planned, fought, and supported; it affected who was recruited to fight and the willingness of individuals to go to war; and as epidemics began it greatly increased the burden on supply and transportation systems while requiring more and more recruits to simply maintain the numbers available to fight. Despite this, many histories of conflicts fought during this era have treated disease as merely an environmental factor that reduced the fighting strength of each side, less important than the strategies, tactics, and weapons which have been the focus of traditional histories of war. As medicine improved from the humoral theories of the ancient world to the bacteriological revolution that ushered in the germ theory of disease, military commanders and doctors began to understand the disease threats, but even at the end of the nineteenth century that knowledge was frustratingly incomplete.
