Description:
Kuala Lumpur: Malaysian Branch of the Royal Asiatic , 2020. Paperback. New. Vaunay has collected together the journals and sketches of an unsung, but pioneering, traveller in the Malay peninsula of the 19th century. De Morgan came to Malaya to secure a tin mining concession and set off into the interior of Perak to prospect for a suitable site for his employers. In doing so he was probably the first European to visit the dense jungles inhabited by orang asli (indigenous peoples) whom he treated with respect. The resulting record of his travels is part adventure story, part botanical record and part ethnographical study. New Paperback. 226 pages with numerous line drawings and a fold out map.

Description:
London: Bodley Head, 1942. Reprint. Hardcover. Good. This book was written when Japan had already annexed much of China, but before its forays into Southeast Asia. Nevertheless the author expected the British, Dutch, French and US colonies in the area would be Japan's next target. So in 1940 he spent two and a half month in Malaya, Borneo, the Dutch East Indies and the Philippines attempting to gauge their preparedness. This book is his report of what he found. Good Hardback. Reprint. Originally published in 1941. 322 pages with an index. Weight: 0.7 kg Post free within Malaysia The cover is very clean except for wear along the top of the spine and top edges. The top right corner has been cut out of a front end paper and the half title page, with some loss to a map of the area. The binding is tight, text clear and there is mild tanning throughout.
