Quezon City: New Day Publishers, 1974. The Igorots live in the region of the Gran Cordillera central mountains of northern Luzon, the Philippines; this book tells of the dramatic story of their ancestors' response to foreign invasion. For three centuries they resisted assimilation into the Spanish empire, monopolized the richest gold mines in the archipelago, sabotaged the government Tobacco Monopoly and defied all restrictions on trade with their lowland countrymen. Drawing on Spanish and Philippine historical archives, the author paints a unique picture of military and missionary confrontation with a stubborn native culture defying all odds to defend itself by primitive arms against Western conquest and conversion. An impressive and fascinating work of historical scholarship. Small crease to back wrapper, interior bright and crisp. xvi, 370 pp., 11 maps, bibliography, index of place names, general index.. Revised edition. Soft Cover. Very Good/n/a. 22 x 14 cm..
