Title: Piracy in The Indian Seas
Subject: Piracy and Literature

Review/comment: It is a lucid narrative on the tension the presence of English privateers and colonists caused among the Malay potentates on the one hand and the Illanuns, the dreaded "fishers of men" in the Malay waterworld before the estabishment of Singapore by Stamford Raffles in 1824. It is about a place and time and the people before the English altered the course of events in island Southeast Asia. Like King Rat, rarely does a novel read like history by an eyewitness. A must read on piracy in The Indian Seas historians of Southeast Asian history should not miss.
