| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - The author was the son of the former Superintendent of Manila City Schools and grew up in the Philippines. By the 1930s he was editor of the "Philippines Free Press" and well familiar with Philippine affairs. The war caught him on a trip to the US and being a Philippine specialist, he wrote this book to inform the American public of the country and its history under the United States. Not a book on the war in the Philippines per se, but a summary of the American colonial record in the Philippines, the Commonwealth, MacArthur and Quezon. He is critical of Aguinaldo ("The Man Who Lived Too Long") who had broadcast for the Japanese. Summarizes the heroic defense of the Philippines, naming many Filipino heroes, ably using available sources, and points to the importance of the Philippines to the US in the future. Marquardt writes from personal experience and cites those relevant to his discussion. In 1944, he returned to Leyte with MacArthur's forces. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
