Présentation de l'éditeur
This little book has been definitely prepared as a text-book for mission-study classes. I ts conclusions are based upon ten years of missionary experience in the Philippines, 1900-1910. A painstaking effort has been made to bring the information culled from government and mission Board reports down to date. Those wishing a fuller statement of any topic herein discussed are referred to the ample literature now available on Philippine matters. The friendship of many Filipinos of all classes has proved so priceless a boon that it is a pleasure thus to introduce those friends, their country, and their needs to all who are interested in the spiritual interpretation of Philippine affairs. Special indebtedness is hereby acknowledged to Dr. David P. Barrows, formerly head of the Bureau of Ethnology of the Insular Government, later Superintendent of Education for the Philippines, for the main outlines followed in the summary of Philippine history. His History of the Philippines, prepared as a textbook for Filipino students in the government high schools, is the best treatise on that subject in print.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a carefully researched, detailed account of the Philippines, its people, and the Spanish conquest. The author, who spent ten years in the Philippines as a missionary, traces their cultural development from early Malayan origins to the present day. He illuminates the archipelago's history, from the Spanish arrival in 1521, through the Philippine Revolution, to American colonialism and the post-independence era. The book discusses significant cultural forces that have shaped the Philippines, including Roman Catholicism, Islam, and American influence. Through observation of the Filipino people, their communities, and their daily lives, the author dispels preconceived notions regarding Philippine history, religion, and society. The book concludes with an insightful examination of the role of Protestantism in the Philippines, and the dynamic challenges facing the nation.
