About This Item
Malacca: St Andrew's Club, 1969. 3rd Revision. Board_book. Good. A delightful and comprehensive guide to places to go for British forces stationed n Southeast Asia in the 1960s. About two thirds of the book is devoted to Malaysia and Singapore and the rest to other countries in Southeast Asia with numerous maps, line drawings and advertisements. Lots of dated references, e.g. on Langkawi - 'surprisingly it has sufficient modern amenities to ensure the comfort of a reasonable traveller.' 313 pages. Weight: 1.3 kg. Post free within Malaysia, but, due to its weight, this book is likely to incur additional postal charges when posted outside Malaysia The cover is chipped at one corner and bumped at another, the back is stained with age and has a previous owner's name written in pencil. The top and base of the spine covering are coming away and there is a strip of about an inch and a half missing. One of the pages has a 1970 booking confirmation stapled to it and there is a gold card from Fraser's Hill laid in. The binding is tight, the text is clear and there is mild tanning throughout.
