Book Description
This book's description of Borneo's native people the Dyaks, a collection of hill-dwelling ethnic subgrouops, is full of condescension typical of contemporary European accounts of natives from the East. The book also delivers an appraisal of James Brooke's reign as the White Rajah of Sarawak since 1841.
