Fee sailed from San Francisco on the army transport Buford, by way of Honolulu, as one of the American teachers sent to the newly occupied islands. Posted to Capiz on Panay, she taught Filipino pupils, kept house, endured typhoons and earthquakes and watched the first local elections; her verdicts on Filipino character are those of a colonial-era American.

A candid, observant record of American rule in the Philippines from a woman who lived it day to day. Download the free EPUB.
