About The Burman
The Burman: His Life and Notions (1882) is a book about the peoples and customs of Burma. First published under the pseudonym Shway Yoe, the book was written by the Scottish journalist and British colonial administrator James George Scott. The book caused a sensation when it was first published because it was considered impossible for a Burman to write so well in English - Shway Yoe's unbiased tone and positive curiosity is also one reason that the author was presumed Burmese by the British.
