Profile

The galleons that plied the Acapulco-Manila route brought precious cargo to the Philippine archipelago that included among other things, many plant species and flora that have since taken root in local soil, culture, and life. This publication presents a fascinating botanical selection drawn from an exhibition entitled "Flora Filipina - from Acapulco to Manila."

"Glimpses of Old Cebu: Images of the Colonial Era" is a 276-page coffee table book of nearly 600 of the best photographs, postcards, stereoviews and lantern glass slides of Cebu and its many towns taken between 1870-1945. These images form part of over a thousand images collected over the past 20 years by Lucy Urgello Miller, a Cebuana now based in California.
