| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - Personal account of an American teenager studying at Silliman University in 1941.
Wanting to be independent, she had planned and saved up to go to the US to finish her studies, but only got as far as Manila when the war caught her. She tried to escape with a male acquaintance, who tried to take advantage of her. She returned to Manila, was interned in Santo Tomas until September 1942, when she was released because she had been born in the Philippines and claimed by her mother. The two managed to make their way to Bacolod, where the author stayed for a while under the Japanese. She decided to escape to the mountains and stayed there, facing all sorts of difficulties, until the return of American soldiers in 1945.
Includes reproductions of her wartime diary, propaganda materials and memorabilia from both the Japanese and the guerrillas. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
