A Company of Planters: Confessions of a colonial rubber planter in 1950s Malaya

John Dodd
Description
First published in 2007, this book has become a classic. Drawn from his own letters and diaries, John Dodd's memoir is a very personal, moving, and humorous account of one man's experiences on the frequently isolated rubber plantations of colonial Malaya. Discover what it was really like for young planters in late-1950s Malaya: hard work, strikes, riots, snakes, plantation fires, ambushes by 'communist terrorists' during the Emergency; not to mention clubs, brothels, and chasing girls!
