Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from About Perak Penang, because Penang is not so well known as Perak, except to a few people of sixty years old and upwards. Early in the seventies. Sir Arthur Birch J's-discovered Penang and made it known to his friends, but his interest in the Island was but fleeting, and it takes a good deal to make a lasting impression on the minds of the English people. Since that time there has been a little war in Perak, but nothing of special importance has taken place in Penang.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Papers on Malay Subjects (Published by Direction of the Government of the Federated Malay States.): History; Events Prior to British Ascendancy; Notes on Perak History As explained in the preface to the Minutes of the Perak State Council, 1877-1879, it was my original intention to give in the first pamphlet of this History series some account of events in Malaya prior to British ascendancy, and in the second pamphlet to deal with the coming of the English to Perak. This intention has been abandoned. The story of British intervention in Perak has been the subject of bitter controversy. A narrative giving the whole truth might terminate the controversy, but it would arouse further bitterness; and, in any case, this little series of educational pamphlets is not the place for the publication of matter to which any exception might reasonably be taken.

This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Tin Mines and the Mining Industries of Perak and Other Papers The duration of the Bronze Period is necessarily unknown, but it is conceded that it must have extended over a very considerable number of centuries. During it, man rose from a state of almost complete savagery to a comparatively high pitch of civilization. Writing was invented, and great advances made in many of the arts and manufactures; nearly all the animals we now keep were domesticated, and the cereals in cultivation, before the commencement of the Age of Iron. During this time, judging from the abundance of bronze objects of all kinds that have been found, large quantities of tin must have been used. It is considered that the sources from which it was derived were Spain, Britain and Malaya. In the early Iron Period the great navigators of the world were the Phoenicians, and it was they who took tin from England and Spain and the Islands of India to the centres of civilization. There was, however, some other race of navigators who preceded the Phoenicians and exceeded them in the extent of their commercial voyages. Who these people were is uncertain, but the recent investigations into the antiquities of America make it certain that they crossed the Atlantic Ocean and carried on intercourse between the Old World and the New. A few of the discoveries that have been made may be mentioned here, to Show the connection that exists between the old inhabitants of America and those of Europe and Asia. The stone and bronze implements are absolutely identical; the round towers, pyramids and coins are very similar; in both hemispheres embalming the dead, artificially deforming skulls, and the rite of circumcision were practised; and the most con vincing of all is, perhaps, that carved representations of elephants have been found in Central America, and veritable tobacco pipes, associated with prehistoric remains of a period very many centuries before Columbus re introduced the use of tobacco into Europ-, e have been found in Ireland. It is perhaps not improbable that these people, whose existence is recognised by both philologists and antiquarians, may have traded, like their successors the Phoenicians, with the lands of the East, as it is certain they did with those of the West.
