The editors, Brainard and Litton, have assembled a unique and important volume of personal and historical reflections on the Filipino experience. This interdisciplinary collection brings together views from the Philippiines and the voices of Filipinos in the U.S. It's a must-read for anyone interested in the post-colonial experience. I highly recommend it!

This is an important book which collects essays by some of the great Filipino and Filipino American minds. This great resource is a very useful educational tool. I highly recommend it to all educators and students of Filipino and Filipino American studies.

"This audacious book, a centennial stock-taking on an independence that never was, constructed as a journey to a goal yet to be realized, is in all of its parts, an interrogation of the colonial condition. In spite of profoundly divergent viewpoints, it strikes a resounding echo: Tama na!" - from Roger Bresnahan's book review of Journey of 100 Years, which appeared in Amerasia Journal.
