The article focuses on the book "The Philippines," by Charles Burke Elliott. Elliott's first volume presents, by way of introduction, a useful condensed account of what other nations have done and left undone in the colonial field. What he gives here is based almost wholly upon reliable secondary sources. The section, leading up to the end of the military regime and concluding volume I, makes highly interesting reading and will recall to many a man a good deal about which he was much wrought up at the time, but which has largely fallen below his horizon with the march of the years.
