| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - One of the earliest books on the Philippines during World War II, this book was written by a professional journalist (a correspondent for Time magazine) based on materials in the Library of Congress and dispatches from the field by Time-Life correspondents Melville Jacoby, Carl Mydans and Shelley Mydans. It focuses mainly on MacArthur, with his men playing a supporting role - an insight into American sentiments of that time. It was, among others, written to bolster morale and encourage Americans to buy war bonds; it was a best seller and was reprinted numerous times during the war. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
