Descriptions of Old Siam (Oxford in Asia Paperbacks)

Rating:
Summary: Siam's travelers from centuries past recount their adventure
Review: This book is both a scholar's and an arm-chair traveller's delight as you travel through Thailand (and Burma) through the eyes of travellers from different times and places. I found the differing views of daily life very interesting. There is also much to read about in the areas of wats/bots (temples) and asian art. It's not an easy read, though, and I found the print too small for prolonged sampling.
