‘Children of War’
I have read many books about the Philippines during the Second World War. This book “Children of War” by Joan Orendain (Vibal Foundation, Inc., 2023) is one of the most interesting, comprehensive and unique books I have ever read. The contents are actually narratives of memories of surviving the war by people who were children or teenagers during those years. The other unique feature of the book is that the children were primarily those from the upper class of that era.
