| Summary, etc. |
During the Second World War, the government of the Commonwealth of the Philippineswas evacuated from the island fortress of Corregidor to the still unoccopied island of the Visayas and the southern island of Mindanao, then to Australia and finally, to the United States. From May 1942 through October 1944, this exiled government became "the symbol of the past and the hope of the future." This handful of men, led by the ailing nationalist. Commonwealth President Manuel Luis Quezon, sustained from afar the morale and the faith in America by the Filipinos in Japanese-occupied Philippines, a significant factor in the failure of Japan's Greater East Asia Co-ProsperitySphere Program in the Philippines. Long considered a more footnote in the history of Philippine American relations, the two and a half years of efforts by the exiled government proved to be a defining period in the evolving relationship between the two nations. "The Exiled Government, the product of Dr. Rufino C. Pabico's quest to understand the origins, dynamics, and consequences of Philippine-American relations, provides a consistently intelligent and insightful analysis of the crucial components of an important colonial relationship. With mounting apprehension about the United States' role in world politics, Dr. Pabico's engaging study will remind readers of the wisdom in John Dos Passos's twentieth-century writings : 'In time of change and danger, when there is a quicksand of fear under one's reasoning, a sense of continuity with generations before can stretch a lifeline across the scary present.' Dr. Pabico's book is an eminent guide to those elements of change and continuity in Philippine-American history."
