<br/><br/> The book builds on Woods's contributions to the reconstruction of early Philippine history using native sources. Composed of nine chapters, it contains revised versions of previously published articles, including Woods's research on Tomas Pinpin's life and seminal work, Librong Pagaaralan nang mga Tagalog nang Uicang Castila (1610), which Woods edited and published, along with his dissertation, in 2011 to mark the four-hundredthyear anniversary of Pinpin's book.
