520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
Summary, etc. |
"This stirring book provides the reader with a well researched and well documented history to support the author's personal memoirs and those of a hundred survivors of two campaigns and the horrors of prison camps.<br/><br/>Although they are now only numbers in the dusty chronicles of a vanishing generation, they are spotlighted in this book as a superb cast of veterans whose heroic deeds vividly demonstrate what it means to be an American or a Filipino serving one's country and fighting to preserve freedom across the Pacific.<br/><br/>This book also memorializes the spirits of their comrades-in-arms who perished in prison camps and in "Hell Ships" through the cruelty of the oppressor." |
|
Summary, etc. |
Partly a personal memoir and a researched account, this work compiles the experiences of both Americans and Filipinos in the defense of the Philippines and the Japanese occupation, giving emphasis on the prisoner of war ordeal.<br/><br/>Villarin was one of the Defenders of Bataan and moved to the US after the war. There, he was able to talk and correspond with other veterans, using these bits of information in this book. Villarin also discusses life in the pre-war Philippines to sharpen the contrast between war and peace. Villarin’s wartime experiences were more unique than others, as he was one of those selected to go to Japan to study as a pensionado in 1943. As a Bureau of Constabulary officer under the Japanese, he was sent to Tokyo where he saw the war from another perspective. Villarin concludes with the end of the war and the birth of the Philippine republic.<br/><br/>An important source book in that it presents many first person accounts from different perspectives, both Filipino and American. - Prof. Ricardo T. Jose |
