Kiss and Bite
About the book "Kiss and Bite" In this 16th volume of the Make My Day Book series, Larry Henares continues to explore the human condition with his observations of history and commentaries on the contemporary scene. He shows his expertise on his favorite American, having read and enjoyed all the four volumes of Carl Sandburg Lincoln biography as a teenager - and it shows in his essay on the battle of Gettysburg, the turning point of the American Civil War. His Philippine Centennial Series in the ISYU opinion newspaper, which included 9-part series on Aguinaldo and a 16-part comprehensive and monumental history of the Filipino people, is represented in this volume by a series on the Philippine...
Salvation and Damnation
About the book "Salvation and Damnation" Originally, Larry Henares planned a 24-volume series of his Make My Day columns and broadcasts. This was scheduled to be finished by the time Henares reached his 80th birthday, in time for his resignation from the human race. This would make this 24th book, "Salvation and Damnation" the last of the series. But this may not yet be the end. Larry Henares has reached the ripe old of 81 years, going on 82, but the old ticker is ticking still, despite a life-long bout with high blood pressure and diabetes. Thanks to his doctors, Lynn Rivera, cardiologist, and May Sison, endocrinologist, and the care of yayas Angelique Castillo and Miriam Zaragoza, as well ...

Give and Take
About the book "Give And Take" This book reveals one of the most interesting facets of Larry Henares' talents and inclinations. He is what his readers call "a traitor to his class." A retired businessman and public servant with a talent for making money and an inclination to serve the least of his brethren, he now turns around to expose the venalities of his former associates, friends and relatives in business and government, decrying the conspiracies that betray the people's trust. For a long time, Henares took over the front pages of the most popular sheet at the time, the Philippine Daily Inquirer, and made them the instrument of his crusade against graft and corruption, sparing no tycoon...
Trash and Treasures
About the book, "Trash And Treasures" The column Make My Day, Larry Henares says, is a morality play with its own sets of villains and heroes. Here in this book he elaborates. Among the heroes are the nationalists, the liberals and the industrialists, such as: Elena Lim, the intrepid pioneer and lady entrepreneur; George Canseco, the nationalist and romantic song-writer who has captured the heart of the nation; Anding Roces, Secretary of Education, who recovered the stolen Rizal masterpieces, Mi Ultimo Adios, the Noli and the Fili; JV Cruz, his classmate, with whom he discovered the plagiarism of Carlos P. Romulo; and Jullie Daza, the vestal virgin who throws flowers to the moon. Among the v...
Wear and Tear
About the book "Wear And Tear" In the Foreword of this 21st book in his Make My Day Series, Larry Henares' daughter Rosanna, writes of him as an essayist who invests the people he writes about "with nearly limitless capacities for tragedy and comedy," a style he amply demonstrates with his depiction of the "Larry's Angels" who take care of him in the Makati Medical Center, as Cleopatra, Queen Victoria, Ravishing Rose, Madonna, Sandra Bulok and Meg Ryan. He writes of his friend Ninoy Aquino, who spent all-night marathon hours with him on a one-to-one basis just chewing the fat. This is the Ninoy no one really knows, not the public Ninoy nursing a political image before the electorate, but a v...
Nice and Nasty
About the book "Nice and Nasty" What can we say about Larry Henares' second book of essays from his column "Make My Day"? He tugs at our heart-strings with his eulogy of the late Eddie Lichauco ("All is ended now: the hope, the fear and the sorrow") and the death of Nick Jimenez's son ("No greater pain is there than this"). He makes us snicker at Johnny Litton's discourse on brandy and whiskey; and at Irene Roces' advice to her husband, "Drop dead, Anding!" Larry's lecture on cockfighting to Shiela Platt will ever be remembered for its gentle humor and its revelation that the fighting cock had its role in the lives of Washington, Lincoln, and even in the choice of the National Bird of the US...
