From the Introduction: "This book, written by a competent military historian who travelled thousands of miles to complete his data, is designed to help scholars and tacticians alike to visualize and appreciate the story of the more significant campaigns fought on Philippine soil. With an eye for the fundamental and basic in analysis and strategy, he fulfills a compelling demand for such a work for the benefit of our coming generations and posterity."

The book is divided into five major sections: Campaigns During the Spanish Regime; War with the United States; Defense Against Japanese Invasion; The Resistance Movement; and The Liberation Campaigns.

A valuable work of military history from the Filipino perspective.
