- Summary, etc. - The author, the first Filipina professional journalist, and her husband, lawyer Antonio Molina Bautista, joined an underground movement in Manila during the Japanese occupation. The group, called "Free Philippines," sought to counter Japanese propaganda by issuing news sheets and propaganda items trying to keep morale up and to inspire continued resistance; the group collected information on the Japanese which were passed on to the guerrillas.
In this book, a personal memoir, she recounts their experiences in resisting the Japanese, being captured and tortured in Fort Santiago. Her husband was somehow able to escape Fort Santiago, but was not seen again. With the return of the Americans, Marquez joined the US Army's Counter Intelligence Corps which she was able to assist in determining Filipinos who worked for the Japanese. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
