| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - A researched account of the 1945 Battle for the Liberation of Manila. Escoda, a nephew of wartime heroine Josefa Llanes Escoda, was able to interview several eyewitnesses to the battle and this is the strength of his book. However, there are several factual and typographical errors (some were corrected in the book's second edition; others were corrected through an errata sheet). Recounts the battle in chronological order, narrating events by place. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
