Posted Amazon.co.uk Waterstone's Bangkok The Story of a City Alec Waugh Format: Paperback 224 pages Date of publication: October 2007 Publisher: Eland Publishing ISBN: 9780955010521 In Bangkok, Alec Waugh has created the most fluent, truthful and affectionate portrait not only of the city, but also of the dynasty and culture which created it. Cutting through confusion and veiled mystery, he unravels the plots, coups, wars, assassinations, invasions and counter-coups of three hundred years of history as if it were this evening's street gossip. This loving description of the genius, fascination and enduring vitality of Thailand is told with Waugh's customary delight in life and sensual appreciation. The story is brought up-to-date with an afterword by Bruce Palling, former "Times" correspondent in Thailand. Click the above link/image for details of this book.
