Summary, Etc.
  • Summary, etc - "...a 160-page book on 27 processional tableaux or pasos that depict scenes and personages from the passion and death of Christ. Every Holy Thursday and Good Friday, these life-size images carved in wood are processioned in Bantayan in a tradition that has been practiced for generations, placing the town on the map of both tourists and Catholic pilgrims and devotees. The spectacle of large carrozas or processional carriages bearing these images has drawn thousands to the island and yet no book has ever been written and published about them until now."
