| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | "My life in Sarawak" by Lady Margaret Brooke is a memoir and historical account written in the early 20th century. It chronicles the Ranee’s life beside the Brooke rulers, blending personal impressions with portraits of Sarawak’s peoples, landscapes, and the distinctive, native-inclusive governance her family pursued. Expect court ceremony, women’s society and crafts, river journeys, and encounters with piracy and headhunting reframed through everyday domestic and political life. The opening of the memoir sets the scene with Sir Frank Swettenham’s preface praising Brooke rule and urging just stewardship of Malay peoples, then an introduction recounting how James Brooke became Rajah, suppressed piracy, and built councils and forts that involved Malays and Dyaks in government. The narrative then shifts to the author’s arrival: seasick stops en route, first sights and smells of the Sarawak River, a formal reception at the Astana, and her wish to meet the women who had stayed away from public ceremony. She hosts a landmark reception for Malay ladies, adopts local dress, learns weaving and sumptuous gold-thread embroidery from a Seripa, and sketches the country’s rivers, tribes, and waterbound life. Early tension follows: a Dyak raid on Sibu under Lintong (Mua-ari), the Rajah’s expedition up the Rejang, the author’s guarded river travels and stay in the fort, vivid riverine descriptions, and a comically tense false alarm at dawn—all establishing the mix of danger, etiquette, and cross-cultural intimacy that defines the beginning.
