A Servant of Sarawak:
Reminiscences of A Crown Counsel in 1950s Borneo
Peter Mooney
New. The author is best known for his distinguished post-independence legal career in Malaysia. However in this book he reminisces about the fascinating early part of his career in Sarawak. It was a time when most inhabitants had little contact with those outside their immediate neighbourhood and the main link with the outside world was a weekly ship from Singapore. The memoir's not a dry one, just dealing with legal cases, but also gives us a warm picture of a culture on the brink of being sucked into a very different world. 272 pages.
