Martial Law in the Philippines:
My Story
"Very few people are qualified to write credibly about the martial law experience in the Philippines. Senator Nene Pimentel, with his first-person accounts, makes the book not only believable - it is most authoritative. Anyone who does not read Senator Nene's book must be cited for contempt of the Senate - and of history." - Senate President Pro-Tempore Juan Flavier
"During the martial law years, a lot of us in private life looked up to the indomitable Nene Pimentel as a source of hope to deliver our country and people from the stifling stranglehold of dictatorship. Men of lesser resolve would have given up the struggle, but he never once wavered on his views that mirrored the sentiments of many. This book allows us a glimpse of this dark period in Philippine history, as culled from the personal experiences of a key player who moved people into action against tyranny and oppression." - Senator Ramon Magsaysay, Jr.
