About the Book
The Battle of Manila had been an act of war, and of malice, intended to show the US what its invasion of Japan would cost in human grief. It was so abhorrent a tactic, so shameful, it required a post-war campaign of denial and revisionism, by myth and memes to cleanse its intent. The book features articles by Dr. Ricardo T. Jose, Richard B. Meixsel, Peter C. Parsons and Paul F. Whitman, placing the battle into its historic perspective. It is set against the letters to home of an ordinary serviceman, who was working as a minor NCO in MacArthur's office in Manila City Hall.
