Summary: The richness of the correspondence files in the Jose P. Laurel Memorial Library cannot be underestimated, and since Laurel's career covered more than fifty years, the letters not only show how Laurel thought, but also serve as key sources and eye opener for the years in which Laurel lived and played a crucial role in developing. All in all, Laurel's correspondence shows that a complete statesman he was. His letters speak of his nationalism and patriotism-the spirit of which transcended being pro- or anti-American or Japanese. From the beginning to the end, we see a gifted public servant, one who was indispensable and irreplaceable. His ideas show clearly, and from beginning to end, again, are remarkably consistent.-Ricardo T. Jose.
