Here are the real-life stories of over 70 observant travellers telling of their varied encounters while in Singapore. Men and women of many nationalities graphically portray life and adventure in the days when Singapore was still but a distant tropic outpost of the British Empire. This new edition has been enlarged to include several items not previously published in the original collection. Vividly told, the Tales are by turns informative or astounding, moving or amusing, but always entertaining. "The picture that emerges is . . . a vignette of a Singapore long disappeared: idyllic, romantic. exotic." Illustrated with vintage black-&-white photographs and drawings.
