Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hours after attacking Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, Japanese bombers stormed across the Philippine city of Baguio, where seven-year-old Curt Tong, the son of American missionaries, hid with his classmates in the woods near his school. Three weeks later, Curt, his mother, and two sisters were among the nearly five hundred Americans who surrendered to the Japanese army in Baguio. Child of War is Tong’s touching story of the next three years of his childhood as he endured fear, starvation, sickness, and separation from his father while interned in three different Japanese prison camps on the island of Luzon. Written by the adult Tong looking back on his wartime ordeal, it offers a rich trove of memories about internment life and camp experiences. Relegated first to the men’s barracks at Camp John Hay, Curt is taken under the wing of a close family friend who is also the camp’s civilian leader. From this vantage point, he is able to observe the running of the camp firsthand as the war continues and increasing numbers of Americans are imprisoned. Curt’s days are occupied with work detail, baseball, and childhood adventures. Along with his mother and sisters, he experiences daily life under a series of camp commandants, some ruling with intimidation and cruelty but one, memorably, with compassion. In the last months of the war the entire family is finally reunited, and their ordeal ends when they are liberated from Manila’s Bilibid Prison by American troops. Child of War is an engaging and thoughtful memoir that presents an unusual view of life as a World War II internee—that of a young boy. It is a valuable addition to existing wartime autobiographies and diaries and contributes significantly to a greater understanding of the Pacific War and its impact on American civilians in Asia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Philippine Islands: Illustrated Because of the importance of the matter and the fact that invisible influences, political and private, are working in both the lower and upper houses of the United States Con gress in both parties to force these valuable Islands out of the hands of their real owners - the American people - I am reprinting in this smaller form the Philippine section of my larger work, United States Colonies and Dependencies. In that are gathered the results of my observations and investiga tions in Porto Rico, Alaska, the Hawaiian Islands, Guam, the Philippines, the Panama Canal Zone, and interesting matter relative to our dependencies, Cuba, Haiti, the Dominican Republic and the Republic of Panama. The gathering of this material involved a special trip of miles to Alaska, visits to Porto Rico, the West Indies and the Panama Canal, and a journey around the world. Altogether, I traveled about miles in securing the photographs and information used in my complete work, United States Colonies and Dependencies. The matter herein contained first appeared in The Saturday Blade, one of our four publications. If widening of human knowledge and a better capacity for the solving of our national problems are in any degree the result of this or my larger book, I shall count myself well paid. It certainly has given me a broader and more certain understanding of the world, and a larger love for my own country.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The absolute present necessity for accurate information by the people of the United States respecting the Philippines has been met in no more satisfactory manner than by this book. The author, Mr. Ramon Reyes Lala, is a Filipino and was born in Manila. His collegiate education was completed in England and Switzerland. A long sojourn in Europe has instructed him in European thought, tendencies, and methods. He has lived in the United States for many years, and has become, by naturalization, a citizen of this country. He collected the historical material for this work largely from the Spanish archives in Manila before the last rising of the people of Luzon in rebellion against Spain. His mastery of the English language is that of the thorough scholar. His qualifications for his work are those of the student, trained by many studies. He possesses by nativity the gift, incommunicable to any alien, of giving a true color and duly proportioned form to his delineations of his own people. These endowments have enabled him to produce a work of striking and permanent value.
