Lee Kuan Yew is the architect of modern Singapore. He did his much awaited memoirs in the late 90s in two volumes. This book is the abridged version of the first volume which dealt with his boyhood in pre-World War II Singapore, his Japanese Occupation experience, his Cambridge University years when his political views took shape, and his work preparing for the launch of the People's Action Party that has since dominated the Singapore political landscape.
