O'Reilly, James en Habegger, Larry — Travelers' Tales. Thailand

San Fransico O'Reilly and Habegger 1993 408 pp 1e druk "This is the best background reading I've ever seen on Thailand!" Carl Parkes, Thailand Handbook, Southeast Asia Handbook Whether we go abroad or roam about our own country, we often enter territory so unfamiliar that our frames of reference become sorely inadequate. We need advice not jast to avoid offense and danger, but to make our experiences richer, deeper, and more fun. To be truly prepared, we need travelers' tales, for we get landmarks more from anecdote than from information. in Traveiers' Talen, we collect useful and memorable stories by country — because that's how people travel to produce the kind of sampler we've always wanted to read before setting out. These stories will show you some of the spectrum of experiences to be had or avoided in Thailand. The authors rome from rnany walks of life: some are teachers, some are writers, some are scientists, all are wanderers with a tale to ten. Their stories will help you to deepen and enrich your experience of Thailand. Cover photo by Michael Buckley. Wanderin4 monks sit under the shade of their untbrella teints.
