In this 1950 memoir, The Crucible: An Autobiography by Colonel Yay, Filipina American Guerrilla, Panlilio narrates her experience as a journalist, triple agent, leader in the Philippine resistance against the Japanese, and lover of the guerrilla general Marcos V. Augustin. From the war-torn streets of Japanese-occupied Manila, to battlegrounds in the countryside, and the rural farmlands of central California, Panlilio blends wry commentary, rigorous journalistic detail, and popular romance. Weaving together appearances by Douglas MacArthur and Carlos Romulo with dangerous espionage networks, this work provides an insightful perspective on the war. The Crucible invites readers to see new intersections in Filipina/o, Asian American, and American literature studies, and Denise Cruz's introduction imparts key biographical, historical, and cultural contexts to that purpose. 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xUnderground movements$zPhilippines 606 $aWomen guerrillas$zPhilippines$vBiography 606 $aWomen journalists$zPhilippines$vBiography 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$vPersonal narratives, Filipino American 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xParticipation, Female 606 $aFilipino Americans$vBiography 606 $aIrish Americans$vBiography 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xUnderground movements 615 0$aWomen guerrillas 615 0$aWomen journalists 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xParticipation, Female. 615 0$aFilipino Americans 615 0$aIrish Americans 676 $a959.9 700 $aPanlilio$b Yay$f1913-1978.$01716194 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808620603321 996 $aThe crucible$94111370 997 $aUNINA
