Subic Bay From Magellan To Pinatubo

Comment from author Gerald Anderson on Philippine - American History 101

During a recent exchange on the board a reader commented that my book "Subic Bay From Magellan To Pinatubo: The History Of The U.S. Naval Station, Subic Bay" had "numerous uncorrected errors." As the author of this book I would appreciate his input on those errors, not to debate them but to consider them for updates in future editions of the book. The book was recently reprinted in its third edition and I would expect it to be updated and reprinted in a year or so as new information becomes available and my time permits.

His comment that the book is not intended as a "geo-political reference" is absolutely correct. It is, as the title states, a history of the U.S. Navy at Subic Bay. The target reader is sailors that were stationed at Subic or spent time there on deployments, etc. It was originally published in 1991 and is still selling well on Amazon.

You may be interested to note that I have recently released "Children of the Sun". This book picks up at the departure of the Americans.

Regards,
Gerald R. Anderson
