About this book
Some eighteen years of residence in the Philippines shape the point of view that Dean C. Worcester sets out at the start of this book, whose full title is The Philippines Past and Present. He recalls how a boyhood of collecting stamps, nests, eggs and birds led him to study zoology and botany at the University of Michigan, and then to join Professor Joseph B. Steere's collecting trip to Manila, with Frank S. Bourns and another young American. They spent about a year in the islands, where suspicious Spanish officials had them arrested and tried.
