520 _aRomance in the Philippine names is a collection of love-tales on the legendary origins and names of barrios, towns, cities, rivers, lakes, mountains, caves, rocks, and other familiar places and objects in our country from Abra to Tawi-Tawi. There are one hundred eight (108) myths in this volume overflowing with the freshness of youth and the young years. They relate the stories of young girls and young men in their young loves -- tragic and blissful, committed and dedicated -- when the country was young. --From the preface
