"Horacio de la Costa is remembered today as a Makati street name or the name of the Humanities building on the Ateneo de Manila University campus. He has been fossilized in bronze, as a figure in a priest's cassock, standing with his palms over his crotch like a football goalkeeper. The essays in this book introduce de la Costa-    the man, the historian, the humanist- to a new generation that should be intrigued enough by this book to go beyond it to sample and savor de la Costa's writings."
