  • Summary, etc. - "Personal account of a young boy in Vigan, Ilocos Sur, caught up in the war. The author writes in the third person (he is Jun), and the names of local and Japanese individuals are changed, "to avoid opening old wounds." This is a story of the author and his family caught in between the Japanese and the guerrillas (the author was a courier for the guerrillas, but not all the guerrillas were heroes)." - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
  • Summary, etc. - "The author was a boy residing in Vigan, Ilocos Sur during World War II. This book, written in 1999, gives his recollections of the Japanese occupation, written 55 years later." - Roderick Hall
