Sobre este artículo
Kuala Lumpur: University of Malaya Press, 1961. First edition. Hardcover. Very Good/N/A. New. In this comprehensive work the author attempts to piece together the historical geography of the peninsula before more reliable written records started appearing from the mid 16th century onwards. The work was ground breaking because for the first time Wheatley painstaking re-examines whatever first hand resources were available rather than relying on second hand translations and suppositions. This 388 page book is divided into seven parts namely I - China & the Malay Peninsula, II - The Malay Peninsula as Known to the West, III - The Indians in Malaya, IV - The Arabs in Malaya, V Three Forgotten Kingdoms, VI - The Isthmian Age, and VII - A City that was Made for Merchandise. There are also numerous maps, diagrams and a bibliography of more than 40 pages. Weight: 0.8kg. Post free within Malaysia This is not an ex-library book, but a previous owner's name has been inked on one of the front endpapers. The gilt lettering on the spine is worn, but still clearly visible. There has been some bumping to the spine ends. Otherwise this is a clean book with mild tanning throughout and strong binding. The fold-out maps are in tact and another map of south-east asia in Ptolemy's time is laid in but has not been detached from this book.

Sobre The Penang Bookshelf
The Penang Bookshelf was set up in mid 2010 principally to introduce Malaysian residents to the variety of books there is available about the country both past and present. We only stock fiction and non-fiction related to Malaysia and the rest of Asia. Much of our current stock of over a thousand different titles is not available in Malaysia. Conversely much of our stock published in Malaysia is difficult to find outside the country. So if there\'s something Malaysia related that you\'re looking for, do please contact us and we\'ll do our best to help. At present details of most of our stock is not on line; we hope it will be eventually!
