Why read it?

1 author picked I Saw The Fall Of The Philippines as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

The Philippine resistance of WWII was, in my opinion, the most admirable resistance organization of the war, whether European or Pacific. In fact, resistance among the Philippine people was so widespread, that the Japanese occupiers were almost correct in assuming any civilian they encountered was a resister on some level.

From Kathryn's list on Pacific Theater of World War II.
