Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - Revolving around the life and times of Jose Cojuangco, Sr. (father of president Corazon Cojuangco Aquino), this coffee-table book is also a history of the Cojuangco family and the times they lived in - from its Chinese roots to arrival and settlement in the Philippines. Lavishly illustrated, the book further details the rise of the family in its economic endeavors, particularly in the sugar industry. Cojuangco was a member of the 1935 Constitutional Convention, was elected representative in the Philippine legislature, and was active in business. Chapter Six covers the experiences of Jose Cojuangco Sr. and his family during World War II: life in Manila; aiding the guerrillas; evacuation to Baguio; deaths of relatives in the La Salle Massacre in 1945. Author was a granddaughter of Jose Cojuangco Sr. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
