Complete with the rubbed, creased and nicked dustwrapper, that has two short closed tears to the front panel and a larger tear to the rear panel, with some toning along the top edge. Not price clipped (35s net to the front flap). Signed by the author in blue ink to the title page "H.L.H Harrison / December 1969". An account of the author's experiences in the Malaya Peninsula, first as a mining engineer travelling throughout the region, and later his escape to Java when the Japanese invaded in 1941.
