EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Last Photograph of Sergeant Hamilton Fish, taken Alive, Friday, June 10th, 1898" captures a poignant moment in American history. The image showcases Sergeant Hamilton Fish II aboard the Saratoga just days before his tragic death during the Spanish-American War. Fish was a dedicated soldier and served as a sergeant in the renowned 1st United States Volunteer Cavalry, famously known as the Rough Riders. This photograph is part of Burr McIntosh's book "The Little I saw of Cuba" where he documented his experiences as both a reporter and photographer covering the war for Leslie's Weekly. In this black and white portrait, Fish stands tall with an air of determination. Dressed in military attire and wearing his hat proudly, he embodies the spirit of bravery that characterized those who fought in this conflict. The ship behind him symbolizes not only transportation but also serves as a reminder of the turbulent waters on which these soldiers embarked to defend their country. This image encapsulates both strength and vulnerability - it immortalizes Sergeant Hamilton Fish II at what would be one of his last moments alive. Through McIntosh's lens, we are transported back to that fateful day in June 1898 when young men like Fish sacrificed their lives for their nation's cause. It serves as a powerful tribute to all those who have given everything for freedom and reminds us never to forget their sacrifice.
