The Seven golden cities of the sun / Nick Joaquin.

This book is the ninth in a 12-volume series conceived by the Philippine Appliance Corporation-PHILACOR- to focus attention on the diverse aspects of the living Philippin cultural heritage. Carefully researched and creatively illustrated, using the finest Filipino artistic talent, the series draws its inspiration from the folk memory, the rich traditions of religion and custom, ethnic cultural forms, rites and rituals associated with birth, marriage and death, the heroes and heroines of the land, costumes, dances and songs of the Filipino people, their games, and their place of worship. It is a journey of renewal and learning, designed to help the reader reach back to the rich, varied and storied past and to understand the meaning and significance of his contemporary culture. --From the back cover
