John Thomson: A Window to the Orient

"For ten years, Thomson traveled and explored the Far East, visiting Penang and the Malay peninsula, Siam, Cambodia, Vietnam, Formosa, and China--recording with his camera the kings and flower sellers, the great court ceremonies and scenes of daily life, the palaces, temples, and remote monasteries of an era now vanished."--the publisher. This is the paperback edition of the beautiful monograph originally published in 1986 by Thames & Hudson.
