English and Thai text. Some Black and white illustrations. 70 essays on Thailand, from Thai traditional massage to Thai boxing, Thai festivals, Thai fruits, Thai history, Buddhist ordination, Thai marriage, etc.
A nice summary of certain Thai festivals and cultural peculiarities to gain a very quick overview. Don't expect something deep, but it's a nice and quick to read raw summary.
This is a very basic book of short essays on the Thai way of life. Good information on the many buddist and traditional festivals, including the history behind them. Worth reading if you are just visiting or living and working there, especially if you are a teacher.
