A Story From The Philippines is a book written by Katherine Elizabeth Driscoll in 1902. The book is set in the Philippines and tells the story of a young girl named Maria who lives in a small village. Maria's father is a farmer and her mother is a weaver. Maria dreams of leaving her village and seeing the world beyond her small community. One day, a group of American soldiers arrive in the village and Maria is fascinated by their stories of far-off places. She becomes friends with one of the soldiers, a young man named Tom, who teaches her English and tells her about life in America. However, Maria soon realizes that the soldiers are not all they seem to be and that their presence in her village is causing conflict and unrest. As tensions rise, Maria must decide whether to stay in her village or follow her dreams and leave with Tom. The book explores themes of cultural identity, colonialism, and the impact of outside forces on small communities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
