The Malayan Life Of Ferdach Ohaney - Thryft
The Malayan Life Of Ferdach Ohaney - Thryft

Historic Malaysia through a British expat's eyes.

If you're interested in how cultures and politics intertwine, "The Malayan Life Of Ferdach Ohaney" would be the doorway to a pivotal era in Malaysian history. Frederick Lees doesn't just tell a story; he weaves his personal insights into the complex tapestry of 1950s Malaysia. His unique perspective as an Englishman who witnessed the Malayan Emergency and the birth of Malaysia's independence gives this book an authenticity that's hard to find elsewhere. It's a meaty read with its detailed backdrop and intriguing real-world intrigue.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
