Raffles
London: Faber and Faber 1966 Time and perspective have increased the stature of Sir Stamford Raffles from whose work grew the modern Far East. Maurice Collis's biography gives both a clearer and a more human portrayal of this great administrator humanitarian pioneer orientalist and collector of animals and plants. Admirers of Maurice Collis will be glad that Raffles should have him for a biographer. On every count of style scholarship and humour as well as for the justice done to a good and unusual man this book stands high on the biographical scene.'
