520 _a"This collection of stories evolved out of William J. Pomeroy's seventeen years in the Philippines. Most of them were written while he was serving a life sentence (commuted after ten years in prsion) for participation in the Huk liberation movement. Stories of men and women who are struggling to break out of the semi-feudal conditions of pverty, superstition and inequality which U.S. policy maintains to its profit; of guerrilla fighters and of tender love in the midst of war. Some are about Americans in the Philippines and their racist attitudes which serve as instruments of the neo-colonialism their contry has imposed on a nation. All are stories of particular interest for today that compel by their honesty." From the back of resource
