Summary note
Digitized version of microfilm collection containing reports to the Department of State from diplomatic representatives of the United States stationed in Havana including notes, correspondence, clippings, and other materials exchanged with foreign officials. They also include correspondence from various sources including other consuls, local officials, private citizens or U.S. Naval commanders stationed in foreign waters. As the principal population center of the island the most varied and extensive reports came through the Havana consuls. The collection covers a crucial period of Cuban, European, and U.S. foreign relations spanning the end of British occupation with the Treaty of Paris in 1783 when Havana was the third largest city in the Americas (larger than New York), to the rapid expansion of trade with the U.S. in the late 18th Century and running through the independence wars, the Spanish-American War with subsequent imposition of the Platt Amendment and the U.S. intervention of 1906. The collection can serve researchers interested in U.S. expansionism; Atlantic slavery as well as Cuban history and has the virtue of containing materials related to a broad range of political, economic and social concerns.
