The Three White Rajahs
---
Sylvia Brooke (Rani of Sarawak)
Having first got her autobiography out of the way, Sylvia of Sarawak, the wife of the last Raja went on to write about the reigns of her husband and his two predecessors. Her husband, Vyner, says in his preface that he doesn't know how she's going to treat the subject which, considering that the lived separately for most of their marriage, may well be true. Nevertheless the book proved to be a good seller at the time as it purported to be the inside story of this extraordinary family whose rule over Sarawak came to an abrupt end with the Japanese invasion. 304 pages with an index and a few black and white plates.
