ABOUT THE BOOK
Occupation: The Later Years continues and concludes the coverage of the Japanese Occupation begun in the earlier book, Occupation ’42, published by De La Salle University Press in 2003. The present work takes the coverage of these events into the later part of the Occupation, starting with the sullen uneasiness of 1943, briefly revisiting the fall of Bataan, through the gradually rising hopes of 1944, and the high price in lives, heritage, and property that the Philippines paid in 1945 to regain its freedom. It opens with the burial of a war hero and concludes with the surrender of Japan on the feast of the Assumption in 1945. Read more.
