Book excerpt: Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Ilocos region of Luzon is a dry, impoverished area that was settled by Ilocano tribes. The first European to visit the area was Spanish conquistador Juan de Salcedo, who established the settlement of Manila in 1571. #2 The Ilocano are a very superstitious people, and their family cell and blood clan are extremely important to them. They are extremely loyal to these two things, and will do anything for them. #3 The Ilocanos, as a people, have a long history of dreaming of escaping their hometowns. They have been historically employed as domestics and drivers, but many have emigrated to undeveloped Mindanao, the Middle East, and Hawaii. #4 Ferdinand’s father, Fructuoso Edralin, was a relatively prosperous peasant who owned 80 hectares of irrigated rice land and coffee plantation along the river in the barrio of Dingras near Sarrat. His mother, Josefa Edralin, was a tough, resourceful woman who had to work hard because her husband was a spendthrift.
