1 BERRY, Linda. Singapore's River : A Living Legacy. 1st pr, cardcovers
Eastern Universities Press, 1982, 
BERRY, Linda. Singapore's River : A Living Legacy. (Singapore) : Eastern Universities Press Sdn. Bhd., (1982). First Printing. Pp. [132]. Square 8vo, cardcovers. 240 x 235 mm. Many colour and black-and-white photos. "Short and compact like the nation it nurtured, this 'absurd little river' is Singapore's own. It has seen the comings and goings of ancient princes and through her channel, Raffles rowed up to usher in a new Singapore. She has never looked back since. Today, the river is again feeling change. The familiar godowns and quays are making way for highrises and hotels; the slipper-like bumboats, so much a part of the riverscape, will soon disappear. And with them, the river community will go--those whose lives are entwined with the Singapore River. Linda Berry has stopped time with her camera and preserved the past in her words. Well travelled and with a special love for rivers, this Canadian journalist has numbered Singapore's river as one of the world's greats." - rear cover. Vg. 28.00
