early colonial experience. At the start of this volume, the authors present a collection of documents detailing the Philippines under Spanish rule, including accounts from the Dominican friar Domingo Fernandez Navarrete. These excerpts highlight various subjects, such as Navarrete's observations on the local governance under Governor Manrique de Lara, the challenges faced by the clergy, and the socio-political conditions of the indigenous populace.
