註釋

Originally published in 1916, Robert Shelford's descriptions of the wildlife of Sarawak remain as accurate and informative as ever for the naturalist of today. But the author's interests as a naturalist were not confined to the animal world. Shelford was an intrepid traveller, and his book vividly describes his expeditions and what he encountered, as seen through the eyes of an Edwardian Englishman in the heyday of the Empire. His accounts of life in the Sarawakian countryside convey the flavor of the time and present a picture which in ways is still recognizable to a modern visitor to Borneo.
