Pavia, Iloilo: Yesterday, today, and tomorrow
"Iloilo being a pilot province in integrated development, the provincial government has requested every municipality to prepare a municipal profile. Among the first of the forty-six towns to submit the manuscript of its "municipal profile" was Pavia. I thought the work was good enough, until I read Miss Guia C. Villaprudente's PAVIA, ILOILO: YESTERDAY, TODAY, AND TOMORROW. This is a comprehensive study of life in Pavia which include history, people, geography, language, beliefs, practices, folkways, etc. This is the kind of work that should be encouraged, nay, required of all municipalities and provinces in the country." from the Introduction by Demy P. Sonza
