“Book Descriptions: "Textbook history didn't teach me much about World War II, the Japanese were portrayed as evil, but not as bad as the Spanish who shot Rizal. From this viewpoint the U.S. liberated us twice: first from the Spanish in 1898, then the Japanese in 1945. Extended stays in Japan made me rethink many things personal and historical that resulted in essays compiled in this book." From the Introduction
Ambeth R. Ocampo was awarded the 2016 Fukuoka Prize.” DRIVE
