520 _aThis Book chronicles a compelling story about heroic figures in Philippine history, and talks about them as human beings struggling to find meaning and hope during the darkest periods of martial law. Our author Jovito R. Salonga and his subjects Gerry Roxas and Ninoy Aquino were key fihures in the resistance against the marcos dictatorship - and indeed both senators Salonga and Aquino spent time in Marcos jails. The Current generation of Students and activists may live in different world, but in many ways they face the same challenges and can draw many lessons from the experiences recorded in this work.
