Contents:
JHM Robson arrived in Kuala Lumpur in 1889 and for the next half century worked as a government official, newspaper editor, businessman and prominent figure in public affairs in Selangor. He died in internment in Singapore in 1945.
Among his other achievements, Robson was responsible for establishing The Malay Mail.
In 1934 he published in Kuala Lumpur his Records and Recollections, which gives much information on the personalities and issues of the era. The book has long been a collectors' item, and it now reproduced with an introduction and notes by John Gullick.
To this has been added certain additional material which is attributable to Robson, culled from newspapers and other sources of the period.
