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.
D.J. Walker is professor emerita of Spanish at the University of New Orleans.
