Quezon and Sergio Osmena are brought to light in the context of the changing colonial society by Michael Cullinane in ILUSTRADO POLITICS: Filipino Elite Responses to American Rule, 1898-1908. Through years of research work, Cullinane shows how provincial politicos rose to national leadership in the midst of influential American officials and Manila-based ilustrados as they took advantage of the possibilities presented by the new colonial order.
