Recipes out of Bilibid

Rare Books

Col. "Chick" Fowler was an American West Pointer who arrived in Manila in late 1941, just prior to the war. He was captured in Bataan, went on the Death March and endured POW life in Camp O'Donnell, Davao and Bilibid. During his imprisonment, he compiled recipes of meals dreamed of by all POWs. To while away the time, he wrote down (on the insides of envelopes from the few letters the Japanese allowed to get through) recipes of all types from his friends, many of whom he acknowledges. The recipes include Filipino, Chinese, French, Italian and other dishes, reflecting the different backgrounds of the prisoners. His aunt, Dorothy Wagner compiled Col. Fowler's collection in standard form and tried them all, creating a unique cookbook.
