Prologue

"Lolo Jose: An Intimate and Illustrated Portrait of Jose Rizal" traces the vivid life story of the First Filipino as culled from family folklore and personal anecdotes. Rizal's grandniece Asuncion Lopez Bantug has written a biography that enables us to see, hear, and feel how an acutely sensitive and prodigiously talented boy became the Philippine national hero in an epoch of great suffering and danger. The book features the most comprehensive photo album of Rizal, with more than three hundred historical photos and reproductions, along with the complete biography of his visual, literary, and political works. Also included are an illustrated chronology of his life and the family's remarkable genealogical chart which traces their Chinese ancestry back to the early seventeenth century and looks forward to five generations of descendants.
