Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Little Brown Brother
Let me say at once that I wrote the Little Brown Brother as a plain story, with no ulterior political motive, no desire to point any special moral or to plead any special cause. I based my story on the things I had seen in the Philippine Islands, and to a very large extent the book is historical. True, I had to draw my own deductions as to what was going on behind the scenes, but I believe that in my solution lies the only possible explanation of the events which occurred during the period in question. I invented an island and a number of characters, whilst for those other characters which are drawn from living per sons I found new names.
As I said above, I planned out the book as a story, a narrative into which I could introduce pictures of life and conditions as I had seen them in the Islands, and, so far as my own people are concerned, its inter est is chie?y on this plane. To the American nation.
