Malaysia: A Pictorial History 1400-2004 tells the story of Malaysia through the eyes of the artists and photographers who witnessed and recorded over 1,200 rarely seen, beautiful and fascinating images. Faded pencil sketches, subtle watercolours, engravings and above all photographs—including the first views produced by 19th-century professionals, stunning studio portraits and the remarkable experiments of early amateurs—present the history of a uniquely complex multi-ethnic society that has transformed the land of the Melaka Sultanate into a thriving global nation. The quest for the new and the fascinating has unearthed stunning images, many reproduced here for the first time, as well as classics without which no visual history of Malaysia would be complete. What makes the images extraordinary is the unique insight they provide into the everyday affairs of ordinary people as well as to major events and personalities. From this wealth of material, Malaysia's history is brought vividly to life. Images were sourced over a two-year period from many different sources around the world. While the majority are from Arkib Negara Malaysia and The New Straits Times Press (Malaysia) Berhad collections, museums in Europe also yielded some unusual and interesting material. Several private collectors, both in Malaysia and abroad, allowed access to rare and precious images that have further enhanced the whole collection. In this book, Malaysia's history is conveyed pictorially in six chapters. — Acknowledgements Preface Introduction: Through the Looking Glass Chapter 1 The Malay World 1400-1849 Chapter 2 Changing Times 1850-1895 Chapter 3 Colonial Jewel 1896-1914 Chapter 4 The Turbulent Years 1915-1945 Chapter 5 Road to Nationhood 1946-1969 Chapter 6 A New Identity 1970-2004 Bibliography Index Picture Credits — WENDY KHADIJAH MOORE is an author specializing in travel, culture and history.
