In this memoir Ricardo Burguete, a Spanish soldier who served in the Philippines from 1896-1897, describes his journey to the Philippines, his impressions of the country, and his experiences in fighting Filipino insurrectionists in his 1902 memoir. The account, written by a young, impressionable patriot, conveys candid characterizations of the inhabitants of the country, reflections on the causes of the insurrection, and a detailed account of the author's actions in support of continued Spanish rule. | War by Ricardo Burguete, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
