In 1897, President William McKinley appointed Theodore Roosevelt as the Assistant Secretary of the Navy, position from which he prepared the war against Spain. Roosevelt acted astutely: he accused Spain of the destruction of the battleship Maine in Cuba, without any proof. Supported by press mogul William Randolph Hearst, he put the Navy on alert without authorization from President McKinley.
