    "The Singapore Story is the first volume of the memoirs of Lee Kuan Yew, the man who planted this island state firmly on the map of the world." "In intimate detail, Lee recounts the battles against colonialists, communists and communalists that led to Singapore's independence. With consummate political skill, he countered adversaries, sometimes enlisting their help, at others opposing them, in the single-minded pursuit of Singapore's interests." "This book is not all politics: Lee brings the reader into his private life, with unusual candour and the occasional touch of humour. Anecdotes abound of significant moments in his life."
    "He also shares his insights into the men who shaped the times, including Goh Keng Swee, S. Rajaratnam, Toh Chin Chye, Hon Sui Sen, Lim Kim San, Devan Nair, Lim Chin Siong, Tunku Abdul Rahman, Tun Abdul Razak, Dr. Ismail Abdul Rahman, Syed Ja'afar Albar, Britain's Prime Ministers Harold Macmillan and Harold Wilson and other key British leaders, India's Nehru, Egypt's Nasser and Australia's Robert Menzies."--BOOK JACKET
