The Master of Penang

 -

 Andrew Barber

The author of several works of popular history about colonial Malaya and Penang has, in this work, turned his hand to fiction. His subject is David Brown, who arrived in Penang in 1800, and founded one of the most successful businesses on the island until the Japanese occupation in 1941. In the book he mixes fact with fiction with a particular focus on what he imagines life must have been like for the early European settlers on the island. New Hardback in a New Dust Jacket. First Edition. 134 pages
