Allen & Unwin, Sydney, 1987. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. It is difficult to view Lee on his own, distinct from Singapore. James Minchin, who wrote one of the most balanced biographies of Lee, titled the book No Man Is an Island: A Study of Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew. But in many ways Lee is the island, embodying in his character all the insecurity, vulnerability, emotional detachment, arrogance and restless energy that also characterize Singapore. His life has shaped and been shaped by the small territory at the tip of the Malaysian peninsula that he made first into a country, and then a rich country. He had few interests outside his work. He did not even keep a diary -- To do so would have inhibited my work, he comments drily in the preface to his autobiography. His legacy is Singapore, no more and no less." -- Terry McCarthy -- Time very slight rubbing of the bottom edge of the binding from self contract. And there is a short (3rd of an inch) care at the top of the rear fold over crease. Father James Minchin has inscribed the book to the previous owners. There is no other damage to describe. No Man Is an Island must surely be a tribute, taking as it does the title from Thomas Merton's book stop Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Please refer to accompanying picture (s). Quantity Available: 1. Category: Biography & Autobiography; Singapore; Politics & Government. ISBN: 086861906X. ISBN/EAN: 9780868619064. Inventory No: 0254126. . 9780868619064.
