This is a collection of narrative stories and essays on Philippine history about events in the late 19th to the 20th centuries. Some of the stories are derived from oral history written down for the first time and preserved to be read by future generations. It also opens unintended controversies about how things happened such as how the Katipunan was betrayed or how General Antonio Luna was assassinated or Emilio Aguinaldo defended his actions during the Philippine Revolution. Considered insignificant by most historians, these stories have been excluded from the mainstream of written history and have become forgotten through time. Covering the precolonial times to the early American period, the book includes many interesting personalities and topics that avid readers may be encountering for the first time: Enrique of Malacca; Tariq Soliman of Macabebe, Pampanga; Fray Domingo de Salazar, first bishop and archbishop of Manila; Senorita Josefa Roxas y Estrada, the Filipina who almost became a queen of Cambodia; scandals about the Revolution funds; the true patriots and Americanistas during the Philippine-American War, and many more.
