- Description
- This book contains varied facets on the story of Igbaras, my hometown. With the numerous incidents related, the Igbarasnon is the central character in a setting comprised of nature's beauty. The scene opens with a legendary backdrop, in a pre-Hispanic era when Aetas and Malays lived peacefully. The roles of Marikudo, Sumakwel, Diro-an, Tamo-ok, and others are in the popular folklore of the town. Different oral versions of their existence and adventures are gathered and modified in this volume.
Like other towns all over the Philippine Islands, Igbaras evolved from the hardships and consequences of foreign rule and invasion, during the Spanish regime up to the American occupation and World War II.
Today, Igbaras is progressing in every aspect. This phase is given only a brief glance in this book, but to see the beautiful panorama of Igbaras today, the Igbarasnon is always ready to welcome everyone.
