There’s no place quite like Southeast Asia. Enchanting, carefree, impulsive, enigmatic, visionary and flamboyant, it is a global hot spot.

This book will take you on a journey across the Indochinese Peninsula and maritime expanse of a beguiling subcontinent. In Vietnam, Cambodia, Myanmar, Laos and Thailand, it paints a vivid picture not only of the places of interest, but also of the culture, history and politics of the region. Both a travel guide and an entertaining account of a stranger trying to make sense of a strange land, it searches for answers to some of the region’s greatest and smallest Who is the Buddhist Osama bin Laden? Why did the US lose the Vietnam War? What should you pack for a picnic in a Buddhist hell garden?
