The Real Malay: Pen Pictures is a book written by Frank Athelstane Swettenham and originally published in 1900. The book provides a comprehensive and detailed account of the Malay people and their way of life in the late 19th century. Swettenham, who was a British colonial administrator in Malaya, writes about the Malay culture, customs, beliefs, and traditions, as well as their history and political system. He also describes the landscape, flora, and fauna of the Malay Peninsula, and provides insights into the economic and social conditions of the Malay people. The book is based on Swettenham's personal experiences and observations during his time in Malaya, and is written in a vivid and engaging style. It is considered a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of the Malay people, and is widely regarded as a classic work of ethnography.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
