Philippine heritage homes : a guidebook /

Philippine heritage homes : a guidebook / Jaime C. Laya, Maria Cristina V. Turalba, Martin I Tinio Jr. - 135 pages : illustrations, (chiefly color), maps 22 cm.

The lives of ordinary people, whether rich or poor, also become real when one sees the homes where they worked, loved and lived their days; the utilitarian and prized objects they owned. To catch a glimpse of the daily life of our ancestors gives us a better appreciation of who we are and how we came to be so... Sadly, time and people all too often take old homes for granted... As the first of several guidebooks, this work covers a sampling of domestic structures readily accessible from Metro Manila. --Back cover of the book.
