                <text>In 1964, the author's book, Mightier Than the Sword: Biography of Graciano Lopez Jaena, came out. It was printed in Bacolod City with the financial assistance of an ardent admirer of the hero, Vice Mayor Benigno G. Hinolan of Murcia, Negros Occidental. The second edition of the book was published by the Graciano Lopez Jaena Foundation in 1988, and the third edition in 2002.&#13;
&#13;
A recent survey in the internet showed that copies of the book are held by twenty-eight (28) major libraries in nine foreign countries. In the Philippines, thirty-five (35) libraries hold the book. The 35 libraries are spread from the Dagupan City Library in the North to Ateneo de Zamboanga University Library in the South.&#13;
&#13;
As seen in the title, this new volume includes a Brief Biography of Lopez Jaena and an Annotated Bibliography. The Bibliography is divided into two parts. Part I comprises the works of Lopez Jaena and Part II consists of writings about him.&#13;
&#13;
The Annotated Bibliography is, by no means, complete. Yet, we are happy to note that Part I includes 87 entries of books, pamphlets, speeches, articles, and letters. Part II lists a total of 206 titles, broken down as follows: 61 books, 134 essays, articles and poems, eight unpublished materials, and three archival materials. We were also pleased to learn that over the years, at least 120 persons have written about Lopez Jaena, the national hero from the Visayas.</text>

                <text>A few years ago, a friend who had just returned from the United States told me, "I saw two of your books at the New York Public Library." Then a year or so later, another friend who worked as a librarian in America said to me, "You can consider yourself a fulfilled writer. You have been listed by the Library of Congress." Intrigued by those statements of friends, I asked my brother Ed to make a survey of libraries to find out where copies of my works, especially books, are located. A literary work is the writer's brain-child. To the author of the works in this Directory, it is a great pleasure to know that his "children" have spread to many countries around the world.</text>

He told me the dream when I was still a boy. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The twenty-nine stories included in this book reveal the kind of man my father was. In presenting these stories to the public, I do not intend to glorify my father. I simply wish to share with the readers these tales of love and care, of struggles and dreams, of homespun philosophy and wit, which I hope they will find interesting, entertaining, and perhaps edifying.</text>

                <text>The speeches and lectures selected for this book were delivered at different places and before various audiences. The purpose for collecting and putting them in book form is not only to make them better understood and last longer, but also to make them reach a wider audience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The title “No Man Is An Island” was chosen because it expresses the central theme common to all the speeches and lectures. This theme is that man does not live by himself and for himself alone, but he also lives with and for his fellowmen. Of course, as the reader may find out, the speeches and lectures also dwell on other subjects of wide and lasting import.</text>

                <text>After nine years out of service, the author was once again elected member of the Provincial Board (the local legislature) of the Province of Iloilo in 2010 and reelected in 2013. In acknowledgement of his accomplishments as a historian and writer, he was chosen by his peers to chair the Committee on Culture, Arts, History and Tourism of the Provincial Board.&#13;

Ever active in the activities and deliberations of the Board, Mr. Sonza has delivered dozens of speeches during the "Privilege Hour." Some of the speeches were on passing or ephemeral issues and concerns, but a fair number are on subjects of lasting interest and relevance.</text>
