"The almost total lack of acceptable material on Philippine history in English gives this undertaking an immediate value."
—James A. Le Roy in American Historical Review.
"With our freshened interest in the Far East, American readers ought not to neglect the new possessions in that region which now fly the Stars and Stripes."—Chicago Evening Post.
"Now at least there should be no difficulty for the American student to gain a clear view of the difficulties which both the Spaniards and their successors have had to contend with in these islands, when they have this work before them, and have not, as formerly, to obtain information from obscure Spanish sources, in a language hitherto comparatively little studied in the United States, ... welcome to all students of the Far East."
—English Historical Review.
