About Author

Maurice Collis

Maurice Stewart Collis (Dublin, 10 January 1889 – London, 12 January 1973) was an administrator in Burma (Myanmar) when it was part of the British Empire, and afterwards a writer on Southeast Asia, China and other historical subjects.

Description

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.
