Publisher Description: The island of Labuan off the north coast of Borneo has had an interesting history since it was ceded to Britain by the Sultan of Brunei in 1846. In spite of the small British population on the island, it has been the subject of much research, especially in regards to its postal history with a vast amount of scholarship devoted to this field. |
