- Abstract / Summary
- Bound handwritten diary, with note on cover reading "Diary of Fieldwork -- Rosemary Firth. May-July 1940. Private and Confidential. III." Entries discuss travels in Malay as well as Taiping and Singapore, with mentions of her husband, Raymond Firth. Observations are made of domestic life and work among the Malay people. Inserted in the diary later is a clipping from The Observer of July 10, 1977 -- a review of 'Singapore 1941-1942' by Louis Allen about the fall of that territory during World War II -- which has been omitted here due to copyright issues.
