| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - "...Nestor Famatigan Sr. is a gifted man with such patience and perception to put in black and white the Battle of Sibuyan Sea and the heroic saga of the mopping-up operations of some islands in Romblon Province. The famous battle between the American planes and the Japanese armada was the turning point of the war. As vividly described in this book, this battle ensured the defeat of Japan's naval forces...
This well-written and thoroughly documented book pays tribute to the heroism of those Romblomanons who fought against the rampant cruelties of the occupying forces. These Romblomanons helped pave the way for Gen. Douglas MacArthur to fulfill his promise: "I shall return."" - From the Foreword
