Summary, etc. |
A time for war is a sensitively written portrayal of the courage of the 41st division of the Philippine army, fighting valiantly in Bataan, after the outbreak of world war 11 in the Philippines, to repulse the onslaught of a foreign invader vastly superior in arms and number. It is an insider's detailed chronicle of the harrowing 105 days when the gallant officers and men of the 41st division, battered by enemy artillery and aircraft fire and weakened by hunger and disease, fought and endured to the end. It was his 41st division that General Carlos P. Romulo said, "To me, this division of Filipinos are the greatest heroes in the Battle of the Philippines." The book starts with a description of the birthplace of the 41st division's mobilization and moving out to Abucay, Bataan, where the battle lines were to be organized. The fighting is vividly depicted from the sixteen savage days in Abucay, to the Pilar-Bagac line in Samat to the ferocious assault by the Japanese with artillery, mortar, tanks and planes on good friday, 3 April 1942, to the last stand of the 42nd infantry regiment on trail 6 under the command of the author, general (then major) Rigoberto J. Atienza. The 105 days in Bataan starts on christmas day 1941 with the arrival of the division in Abucay and ends shortly before midnight on the eve of the fall of Bataan on April 1942. This book will be interesting reading for world war 11 veterans, military men and historians, and for those seek to understand the thinking and the feeling of the Filipino as he lived and fought during that time for the war. |
