Ambeth is such a delight to read. His wit, humor, keen observations and insights on Philippine history never fail to keep us entertained and informed.

-Benedicto "Bencab" Cabrera, National Artist for the Visual Arts

Hindsight is the lowest form of intelligence - except for historians. History is the collective memory of a nation but it has to be constantly rewritten. It is the historian's interpretation of,more often than not, questionable facts.

A true historian must first get his facts from primary sources;second, be objectives; third, be interesting. Ambeth Ocampo's historical writings meet these three criteria. He is the historian to watch.

-Alejandro R. Roces, National Artist for Literature
