Morgan Shuster. . *** Subtitle continued: "Principles of America, who inculcated them in his own people, and who forty years later threw himself and his brave countrymen back into the hell of Bataan and Corregidor when the American flag was attacked by a treacherous enemy. This story is told in President Quezon's own words." . This is a stunning and revealing primary resource.

Other major decisions included the reorganization of the islands' military defense, approval of a recommendation for government reorganization, the promotion of settlement and development in Mindanao, dealing with the foreign stranglehold on Philippine trade and commerce, proposals for land reform, and opposing graft and corruption within the government. He established a government in exile in the U.S. with the outbreak of World War II and the threat of Japanese invasion. Scholars have described Quezon's leadership as a "de facto dictatorship" and described him as "the first Filipino politician to integrate all levels of politics into a synergy of power" after removing his term limits as president and turning the Senate into an extension of the executive through constitutional amendments. . *** Color photos are posted to our website. . *** CONDITION: The book is bound in the original publisher's black pebbled cloth with cover & spine titles in gold. The front cover title has a bit of the gold rubbed away, see photos on our website. . The book is solidly bound, firm, with all photographs & end paper maps present. The contents are pristine, no marks or issues. About as good as it can get ! . *.…
