their children are steeped in traditional Filipino values, in order to cope with the changing currents of contemporary life. About the Cover : In the center is a section of the Filipino flag, designed by Gen. Aguinaldo and executed in silk cloth by Mrs. Marcela Agoncillo just before Aguinaldo ended his Hong Kong exile and returned home in May 1898. The flag measured three-by-six feet. The human face in the sun featured the earlier Katipunan flags. The three stars stood for Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao-that Aguinaldo envisioned as the states in a federal Filipino Rupublic. The photograph at the bottom shows Filipino troops outside Tondo in August 1898. |

| Summary, etc. |
This history tells the story of the Filipino Revolution in its full compass. The emergence of the young nation, whose people identified Filipinas, not Spain, as the Motherland. The revolution as military struggles the triumph of the Army of the Liberation of Filipinas against the regiments and brigades of a European army-the latter reenforced with 45,000 troops from Spain. The central revolutionary government and working civilian local governments, ultimately organized in January 1899 as the first constitutional democratic republic in Asia. This work is clearly a patriotic history and depiets the Filipinos of the Revolution as a worthy people whose constancy to their ideals lifted them over challenges and reverses. In his own words, Corpuz ofters this work as a contribution to the enrichment of the Filipinos' collective memory. O.D. Corpuz has done extensive research in Cambridge (Mass., U.S.A.), Washington, D.C., London, and in the Sevilla archives in Spain. His two-volume The Roots of the Filipino Nation (1989) has to be deemed a classic |
