The book presents Philippine historical edifices - cathedrals, bridges, streets, buildings and monuments as they were - are featured side by side with how they look today. It provides the readers with direct comparison between the past and the present, with a peek at the future. It is not only educational but also inspiring. We can discover, perhaps for the first time, the many qualities derived from our historical appreciation between the "then" and the "now" of the surroundings which helped form the ambiance in which we live today. And from all of them, we can learn what more we can do to keep the pages of our history alive and relevant to our time, and not just for ourselves but for many generations of Filipinos to come
