The Sea Gypsies of Malaysia, Illustrated

One of South-East Asia’s more curious cultures are the Sea gypsies,who still live near the oceans, and rivers of the region.

“The Sea Gypsies of Malaysia,” explores the beliefs, culture and history of the Sea gypsies who still live alongside the coast of Malaysia, debunking the myths behind this unique group of people, who have developed a strong cultural link with the sea.

This book was originally published last century, but is one of the few written accounts of the Sea Gypsies, and contains original photographs.
