| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - "Jose Miguel C Fernandez was born in 1884 when the Philippines was still a Spanish colony, and educated during the American Commonwealth. He was a prolific writer of short stories and poems often enjoyed only by his immediate family. He wrote his memoirs giving account of Philippine society at the turn of the century and his memoirs of the Japanese occupation during WWII. Having stumbled onto my grandfather's notes about life during WWII and his escape from Iloilo, I realised that his memoirs deserved to be published in a book. This book provides witness to historical events and the changes that occurred to Philippine society caused by the war. The book builds on his memoirs of WWII with written accounts about the guerrilla involvement of one of his sons, and the recollections about life during the war from the other surviving children. It is a book full of noble love, devotion for family, struggle and strength of character lived under the extraordinary circumstances of war."
