- Summary, etc. - Based on the diary of Lt. Col. Campo, a retired PC officer living in Davao in 1941, this features the diary, the research done and other memories of Col. Campo's family. Morales, Col. Campo's granddaughter, took it upon herself to publish the diary and provide annotations and explanations so that the younger generation would be able to understand it. Introduces new information and detail about Davao during the war, from one who was a senior member of Davao's population. The family evacuates when the Japanese land; but later return to Davao City. Col. Campo is arrested by the Japanese on suspicion of aiding guerrillas, and is tortured and jailed. Col. Campo's travails and feelings are recorded graphically, and he is critical of those Filipinos who collaborated with the Japanese as well as US Army officers who did not protect Davao. Morales adds much more background information on the conditions and personalities of Davao, providing a close up look of Davao City under Japanese rule. A unique and important book because it is one of a few which provides an insider's look at a city in Mindanao. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
