Antonio de Morga
Antonio de Morga Sánchez Garay (29 November 1559 – 21 July 1636) was a Spanish soldier, lawyer and a high-ranking colonial official for 43 years, in the Philippines (1594 to 1604), New Spain and Peru, where he was president of the Real Audiencia for 20 years.He was also a historian. After being reassigned to Mexico, he published the book ''Sucesos de las islas Filipinas'' in 1609, considered one of the most important works on the early history of the Spanish colonization of the Philippines. As deputy governor in the Philippines, he restored the ''audencia.'' He took over the function of judge or ''oidor''. He also took command of Spanish ships in a 1600 naval battle against Dutch corsairs, but suffered defeat and barely survived.
His history was first published in English in 1868; numerous editions have been published in English, including a 1907 edition. It has also been reprinted in Spanish and other languages. Provided by Wikipedia
