Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Army Woman in the Philippines: Extracts From Letters of an Army Officer's Wife, Describing Her Personal Experiences in the Philippine Islands
Our trunks have gone, and the Colonel is down at the boat on duty, while I am sitting, like Marius amid the ruins, surrounded by Japanese baskets and satchels. Nothing else is left in our rooms. We are engaged in laying a substantial pavement of goodly intentions; not to worry, to enjoy everything except leprosy or small pox, and to get the most out of our trip and our station in the Philippines.
