Ten Months A Captive Among Filipinos is a first-hand account of the experiences of Albert Sonnichsen, an American prisoner-of-war during the Philippine-American War. The book recounts Sonnichsen's capture by Filipino rebels in 1899, his subsequent imprisonment on the island of Luzon, and his eventual escape and return to the United States in 1900. Throughout the book, Sonnichsen provides detailed descriptions of his captors, their customs, and their way of life, as well as his own struggles to survive in captivity. He also offers insights into the political and social climate of the Philippines during the early 20th century, and how the conflict between the United States and the Philippines impacted the lives of ordinary people. The book is a fascinating and gripping account of one man's harrowing journey through captivity, and provides a unique perspective on a little-known chapter in American history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the Philippine-American War or in the experiences of prisoners-of-war.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
