| Ringkasan | This book is based on the detailed journal Hugh Low kept while working in Sarawak, Borneo in the 1840s, and was the first authoritative account of northern Borneo to be published. Not only did it provide a general survey of the area at the time--its geography and natural resources--and a scientifically significant account of its flora, but it also pioneered an entire genre of writing about indigenous peoples and their customs. A work of diversity and erudition, it served as a standard reference work for half a century and this reprint is long overdue. |
