Though writing about history, Ocampo writes on Rizal as if he happened yesterday. In the clean, cool style of a good journalist, Ocampo is one historian who has never been known to impose dogmas and definitive treatises. Reading Ocampo’s history is like sitting down with a friend who shares what he has learned. But what he does best is to share the certainty of his doubts. Which probably makes him less of a historian. But then history is too serious to be left to historians. -From a Rizal Day Editorial, Philippine Daily Inquirer
