Penang:
An inside guide to its historic homes, buildings, monuments and parks
---
Keith Hockton & Howard Tan
Before you groan "Oh, no not another Penang picture book," this one is a bit different. Firstly, it's small enough to fit into a big pocket or a normal handbag and although every page has a colour photo by Howard Tan, it's about the people who lived in the buildings of Penang, rather than about the architectural styles. The book lists over a hundred houses and other places of interest, devoting a page to each. It also comes with it's own fold out map with all the places mentioned in the book marked on it. When you look at the map you'll realise that the sequence of buildings, whose stories are described in the book, is so designed that the book's a handy companion for a walking tour of the city. New Paperback. First Edition 195 pages.
