Colonel William Farquhar (1774-1839) was a British Colonial Officer who became Commandant of Malacca in 1803, a post through which he was able to indulge his interest in natural history, sending men to collect various plant and animal specimens, which he then commissioned artists to paint. This book brings together for the first time all 477 illustrations in William Farquhar’s extensive collection of natural history drawings, commissioned during his service as the British Resident and Commandant of Melaka from 1803 to 1818.
