Good morning yesterday : growing up in Singapore in the 1950s and 1960s

Information About

"Story. This book is also an ordinary man’s story. It is not an autobiography. There is nothing extraordinary or spectacular about my life worth documenting as history. I am simply reminiscing about growing up in a Singapore that has long vanished from the face of this planet. I am simply using my personal recollections to paint a picture of the childhood that many other ordinary Singaporeans of my generation experienced in the 1950s and 1960s. In order to give a more complete picture, I have included several sections contributed by my friends"--Introd.
