“The study of history demands that evidence be as close to the events as possible, giving direct witness to the occasion or the happening. Primary sources provide these direct witness to the past and the need for evidence leads to the skills in history . . .
The primary sources presented in this book will provide the students with material by which they can apply the methods of critical assessment and evaluation and learn the historical context and conditions that produced these sources. Hopefully it will be a beneficial and enjoyable activity for the students.”
—Excerpt from the foreword of Maria Bernadette L. Abrera, College of Social Sciences and Philosophy,University of the Philippines Diliman
