Another skein of possibilities fans out to the future from each point in time. We cannot change the threads that come from the past, but we can choose which threads pull us into the future.\u003cbr\u003eThis book is about the threads and connections of the past that met at a moment of time on the morning of September 28, 1901, and which stretched forward from it.\u003cbr\u003eSome call it the Balangiga 'Massacre', others the 'Balangiga Encounter'. The American generals who first heard about it called it the 'Balangiga Affair'. In this book it's referred to as the 'Balangiga Incident'.\u003cbr\u003eLike the warp and weft of a cloth, the threads toward Balangiga weave back and forth across the loom of history in a far more complex pattern than simplistic analyses suggest. It was not an attack by ignorant, violent savages in the thrall of a charismatic leader, Trilbys to the Svengali of General Vicente Lukban. It was not an act of the patriotic masses rising in their newfound sense of nationhood against an oppressive foreign invader. Nor can it be understood in terms only of the 1896-1902 Philippine War of Independence and the Pulahanes Period that followed.\u003cbr\u003e(More inside)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tatay Jobo Elizes Pub,Bob Couttie\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798799187637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Independently Published\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/10\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 372\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.42lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.00h x 7.00w x 0.77d","brand":"Tatay Jobo Elizes Pub","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48996666245375,"sku":"9798799187637","price":23.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hang-the-dogs-tatay-jobo-elizes-pub-9798799187637","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
