Contains the study which critically examines the events of the period,expressing in the process the "benevolent"distortions that were deliberately spread about the Filipinos,while at the same time revealing the truths for which the Filipino revolutionaries fought.It analyzes the forces that were at work and portrays realistically the people and their leaders during the epoch.Finally,the real Luna emerges- a man who was all too human,obsessed with one consuming desire:to liberate his native land from both the Spaniards and the Americans.
