#002 - Life as we live it today | competition
Like all good blogs and magazines, we want to do random acts of kindness to our dear readers,followers and fans. With that, we are proud to announce to you the first ever Happyesque giveaway! This month, we are giving away ONE copy of Singapore:A Biography written by writer and historian Mark Ravinder Frost and writer Yu-Mei Balasingamchow. To make it extra special, this copy has been signed by the authors. Oh, the things we’ll do for you.
Here’s what the book is about:
Brimming with verve and dramatic incident, Singapore: A Biography offers a fresh look at the life story of this island city-state through the personal experiences of the workers, adventurers, rulers and revolutionaries who have shaped its history over the last seven centuries. The authors, drawing on research undertaken in collaboration with the National Museum of Singapore, have woven together ancient chronicles, eyewitness accounts, oral histories and even modern radio and television broadcasts to create a compelling narrative that brings the past back to life. Grounded in scholarship yet fired by the imagination, this book reveals the Singapore story to have been as rich, diverse and multilayered as the city-state is prosperous, ordered and successful today.
