Basic overview, utilizing primary and secondary sources available at that time, as well as consultations with guerrilla leaders who were still alive. Presents much important information not available elsewhere on the travails and exploits of the Filipino guerrillas, how they kept large sections of the Philippines free from Japanese control and how they aided in the liberation of the country.
