There is so much to tell about the facets of the life of General Fernando Canon. As a multifaceted man (scientist, medical and wellness researcher and practitioner, musician, writer, entrepreneur, nationalist, politician, public servant, soldier), what little that has been known about his life was centered on his involvement in the Philippine Revolution of 1896 and thereafter. But capturing the essence of this man though these facets can be an attempt akin to untangling the "Gordian knot". This book skews this effort by presenting the man in the singular lens of his music, specifically guitar music, which truly became the root of his cultural, artistic, and personal soul.
