Author Description

"Archipelago of Islands recognises the constellation of islands that are part of the Singapore that we know today. The islands that surround the main island of Singapore have played many vital roles over the centuries: providing rich habitats for diverse wildlife, being homes for island communities, while serving as navigational signposts for ships. Weaving together storied threads of nature, history and culture, this book offers new perspectives on the past and present of our archipelago."--Back cover.
