Malay Travel Literature

This is interesting to pursue, especially travel literature before 1970s. Maybe I should start by collecting travel books from the era. I see that Harun Aminurrashid wrote quite a number of books about his travels; I hope any publisher will take up the opportunity to republish his works for younger generation. ITBM? Or has it become national asset of Singapore?

  1. Melawat Klimantan Utara (1948).
  2. Melawat ke Paris (1953).
  3. Kunjungan ke Indonesia (1954).
  4. Chatetan ke Tanah Suci (1961).
  5. Terbang ke barat (Pustaka Melayu, 1961. 264 halaman).
  6. Meninjau ke negeri Sham (1961).
  7. Melawat negara tetangga (Pustaka Melayu, 1962. 204 halaman).
  8. Melihat matahari di tengah malam (Pustaka Melayu, 1963. 146 halaman).
  9. Chatetan melawat ke Eropah (1964).
  10. Mengembara ke Andalus (Pustaka Melayu, 1965. 350 halaman).
  11. Mengesan jejak pelayaran Abdullah Munshi (1966).
