The Kings Chinese chronicles the incredible life of the merchant prince of Penang, Yeap Chor Ee.
A penniless migrant from China, Yeap Chor Ee started out in Penang as a barber but rose to become Penangs richest man and one of the states greatest philanthropists. This book is invaluable in providing insight into the pulsing commercial centre that was pre-war Penang, and of a Malayan peninsula that was undergoing rapid change.
