Thailand - The Golden Kingdom Text by William Warren Photographs by Luca Invernizzi Tettoni One of the best known English language writers in Thailand teams up with one of Southeast Asia's best known photographers for this wonderful volume, definitely one to keep. Thailand has many claims on the title ""Golden Kingdom"". It is a country of shimmering wats, its monarchy is still deeply revered and it exerts a magic all of its own. This book captures that magic with stunning photographs of all aspects of Thai life, and makes an ideal souvenir for any visit to the country. Author and long-term resident, William Warren, provides an insightful overview of the history and geography of the kingdom, as well as a detailed exploration of the rich tradition of Thai arts and crafts, religion and cultural events. Soaking up the sun on a beach, visiting a wat, partaking in one of the numerous festivals or browsing in the art and antique shops are all part of the essentially ""Thai experience"" shared here.
