5.0 out of 5 stars great 1950 autobiographies and introduction to Indonesia, October 18, 2004

Mr. Gelek (Bay Area, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Telling Lives, Telling History: Autobiography and Historical Imagination in Modern Indonesia (Paperback)
I teach about Indonesia and this book is the best classroom introduction to modern Indonesian history and 20th century Islam in Sumatra. I use the Radjab text. Written in 1950 the autobiography covers the 1910s and '20s -- a time of "pergerakan" politics in Minangkabau West Sumatra. But in '50 Indonesia was newly independent and Radjab is reworking the Indonesian past to fit with Merdeka.

Anyway, it's a great teaching resource and if it ever goes out of print then I'm in trouble.
