Description and Table of Contents
Description
The British North Borneo Chartered Company administered the Malayan state of Sabah from 1881 to 1945. Ivor Evans served there as a company cadet and published his district officer's memoir in 1922. Reflecting his affectionate, if paternalistic, concern for the territory and its people, this account brims with information about Borneo's immediate past, much of which still remains in the Sabah of today.
