Memoirs Of The Philippine Islands by Don Luis Prudencio Alvarez y Tejero

The Memoirs of the Philippine islands by Don Luis Prudencio Alvarez y Tejero, a distinguished Spanish lawyer who became a representative of the Philippines in the Cortes, puts together some notes on the reforms which, he believed, should be introduced in the Philippines to achieve prosperity. The author also cited the prevailing conditions of some branches of the government during his stay in the country which he considered as hindrances to its success. It is hoped that through the author's observations on how the Philippines was managed by his compatriots, who were supposed to safeguiard the rights and interests of the people of the Islands, the roots of some problems of contemporary society may be clearly understood.
