A century ago, northern Thailand (or Siam as it was then known) was
home to small communities of Westerners, many of them British
diplomats and foresters (like Reginald Le May and Reginald
Campbell) or American missionaries (like Lucy Starling and Mary Lou
O'Brien). Though few in number, they left behind a considerable
written legacy. The writing is invariably personal and often vivid,
describing their hopes and aspirations, the challenges they faced
in their work and daily lives, and their attachment to this
enchanted land. This book makes a selection of that writing
accessible to a wide readership, much of it for the first time. The
texts are illustrated by 65 evocative photographs, many of them
contemporary.
