Summary	The work is an account of the famous episode of the Philippine-Spanish war of independence. It tells the story of a small group of soldiers under the command of Lieutenant Martin Cerezo who shut themselves up in the church and convent of the small town of Baler for almost a year after the Spanish had already surrendered its authority to the Philippines. The story is one of patient endurance, of bitter suffering from hunger, disease and wounds, of death bravely met, of heroic deeds, and of sublime devotion to the flag under which those men were serving. The book also contains illustrations of the author, the group of survivors, the house of the attackers and several appendices. It ends with a list of those in the detachment and the pension assigned to them by the government.
