Ten Months a Captive Among Filipinos

In 1901, during the Philippine-American War, American mining engineer Albert Sonnichsen was taken captive by Filipino rebels and held for ten months in the mountains of Luzon. In this gripping first-person account, Sonnichsen describes his harrowing ordeal, including his interactions with his captors, his efforts to escape, and his eventual rescue by American troops. This book offers a rare glimpse into a little-known aspect of the Philippine-American War.
