Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc. - Memoir of an eleven-year old boy (of Spanish and Scottish descent) and his brother in Iloilo during the war. Lacambra tells of his adventures and observations of the Japanese, escaping to Guimaras when they feared the Japanese might learn of their Scottish background, and then back to Iloilo City and the liberation. Drawn from a diary he kept during the period, this book tells of young boys caught by war, maturing quickly during those uncertain years. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
