Summary
An evocative collection of stories from the Malay Peninsula, written by Sir Hugh Clifford during his tenure as a high-ranking colonial administrator. This 1917 early printing captures Clifford's celebrated—and chilling—accounts of local folklore and superstitions. These stories provide a vivid, historical glimpse into the "silent" places of the jungle and the cultural clashes of the early 20th century.
