The Sea-Dyaks of Borneo is a book written by Edwin Herbert Gomes in 1907. It provides a comprehensive account of the Sea-Dyak tribe, who lived in the Malaysian state of Sarawak on the island of Borneo. The book describes the Sea-Dyaks' way of life, including their customs, beliefs, and social structure. It also discusses their history and their interactions with other tribes in the region.In addition to providing an anthropological study of the Sea-Dyaks, the book includes a chapter on missionary work among the tribe. Gomes, who was a Christian missionary, describes his efforts to convert the Sea-Dyaks to Christianity and the challenges he faced in doing so. He also provides insight into the impact of Christianization on the Sea-Dyaks' culture and way of life.Overall, The Sea-Dyaks of Borneo is a fascinating account of a little-known tribe and their interactions with the wider world. It provides valuable insights into the history and culture of the Sea-Dyaks, as well as the challenges of missionary work in a remote and unfamiliar setting.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
