| Summary, Etc. |
- Summary, etc. - Personal account narrating the experiences of a Filipino girl, who was born and raised in pre-war Corregidor. She was in Manila and Baguio during the war, later evacuating to Ilocos Norte, Pangasinan with a brief stay in Mabalacat. Told in literary style, this book focuses on specific individuals (women heroes among others) and incidents, emphasizing the experience and the author's impressions rather than on historical facts. She has also written other works of fiction on which include the war (such as "Nobody Gathers Sea Shells and Gun Shells Anymore"). - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose
