101 Stories on the Philippine Revolution by Ambeth R. Ocampo (Out of Print)
"Ambeth is such a delight to read. His wit, humor, keen observations and insights on Philippine history never fail to keep us entertained and informed." Benedicto "Ben Cab" Cabrera National Artist for the Visual Arts "To a people who are blind to the lessons of the past, Ambeth R. Ocampo is the one-eyed king. Sure he has his critics, but all the time, he is entertaining, fresh and bracing, not stodgy or stultifying like some academics with their voluminous footnotes and explanations. He always makes historical figures come alive, blemishes and all, and with his curious eye, makes our heroes very human and not mythic figures that we want to make of them. Ambeth makes history enjoyable and therefore, and hopefully, prepares us for the future." --F. Sionil Jose National Artist for Literature "No stories, no history. Without Ambeth's stories, we might as well be, well, history." --Conrado de Quiros
A Philippine import.
