Footprints on Water: The Untold Journey of WT Stace from Colonial Ceylon to American Philosophy

foot print on water book

We are pleased to announce the publication of a compelling biography of WT Stace, a colonial administrator whose journey from Ceylon (Sri Lanka) to Princeton University in the United States is now available for readers. This book provides an intimate look at Stace’s life during the final years of the British Empire in Ceylon, offering unique insights into his experiences and the socio-political environment of the time. Australian readers may find particular interest in the connection to Stace’s wife, Beverly Beven, daughter of the wealthy Ceylonese lawyer Willy Beven, whose story adds depth to this historical narrative.

The book is available on our website www.pererahussein.comand ships to Australia within 10 days. We believe it will be a valuable addition to your collection, offering a fascinating glimpse into a lesser-known chapter of colonial history and the life of a man who bridged the worlds of administration and philosophy.
