Description
Aa near fine copy of a very scarce first-hand account of the fierce Philippine resistance against the Japanese in World War II, in a dust jacket with faint wear to the spine head and corners and a small closed tear at the base of the rear spine hinge, else fine.
As a fighter pilot and instructor, Villamor flew, outnumbered and outgunned, against the Japanese during the fall of the Philippines and then led the first Philippine resistance group from Australia.
