| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - This book is a collection of verses picturing life in pre-war and wartime Philippines. The author, an American woman married to an Episcopal missionary stationed in Bontoc, was in Manila at the start of the war. The poems document activities and observations on life under Japanese rule (as missionaries, the Japanese initially did not intern them), and in Santo Tomas and Los Baños Internment Camps. The early poems were passed on to her friends Herbert Zipper and Trudl Dubsky for safekeeping, but were lost in the Battle of Manila. Only one original poem survived the war; the rest were reconstructed from memory after liberation. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
