Excerpt from Speeches Incident to the Visit of Secretary Root to South America: July 4 to September 30, 1906
The speeches included in this volume were delivered during a journey by the Secretary of State of the United States of America in South America in the summer of 1906. The journey had as its primary purpose a visit to the Third Conference of American Republics, held at Rio de Janeiro in July and August of that year, and it was extended upon the hospitable invitations of the Governments of other South American countries. It was made in the United States cruiser Charleston, Commander Cameron McR. Winslow, U. S. Navy, sailing from New York July 4th, and left at Panama September 22d, and finished in the United States cruiser Columbia, Commander John M. Bowyer, U. S. Navy, sailing from Colon September 23d and arriving at the mouth of the Potomac September 30th.
The speeches here printed are, for the most part, of a sufficiently official character to be properly part of the diplomatic history of the American Republics. Many other speeches made during the journey have not been preserved.
