Brimming with verve and dramatic incident, Singapore: A Biography
offers fresh insights into the life story of this island city-state
through the personal experiences of the workers, adventurers,
rulers and revolutionaries who have shaped its history over the
last seven centuries. The authors, drawing on research undertaken
in collaboration with the National Museum of Singapore, have woven
together ancient chronicles, eyewitness accounts, oral histories
and even modern radio and television broadcasts to create a vivid
and compelling narrative that brings the past back to life.
Grounded in scholarship yet fired by the imagination, this book
reveals the Singapore story to have been as rich, diverse and
multilayered as the city-state is prosperous, ordered and
successful today.
