The 1969 Philippine election resulted in the provision of another four-year term to the incumbent President Emmanuel Pelaez. Having proven the efficacy of his policies of promoting agronomy and agricultural development, Pelaez's government...

He has some really great scholarship on the Mongols. I am fortunate enough to own a copy of "Our Great Qing: The Mongols, Buddhism and the State in Late Imperial China". He may have some articles more relevant to later Mongol history too, but they're still...
