The author gives us an unforgettable image of the palace and the men of power, prominent personalities and significant events closely associated with it, admirably capturing its life spirit that has been excitingly unique and without precedent in its evolution. The book aims to foster better understanding of the rich history of the Malacañang Palace and the multi-faceted leaders who have inhabited it since the beginning of our nation. It also serves to revive and reinforce national pride in our democratic institutions and reinstill respect for the traditions of the Philippines Presidency.
