Description

Drawing on a range of archaeological and historical sources gleaned from research in Britain, India, Singapore, the USA and Canada, this book traces the geo-strategic development of Singapore from its first settlement in the 13th centry, through the turbulent phases of the Early Modern period, to the dramatic military events that have been such a distinctive feature of the 20th century.
