Finding Travel Books About Bangkok

Travel Books About the History of Bangkok

Bangkok can drive you nuts, especially if you’re a foreigner, so you probably need “Lonely Planet Thailand” (9^th Edition, authored by Joe Cummings.) Important to read if you’re not familiar with Thai ways and culture. At 1.5 pounds and 960 pages, it can be quite a heavy read. Useful though.

Travel Books About the People of Bangkok

If you want a change of pace from conventional travel guides, you may want to read “’Hello My Big Honey! ‘ Love Letters to Bangkok Bar Girls and Their Revealing Interviews” written by Dave Walker with co-author Richard S. Ehrlich. Gives insights into the Bangkok red-light district, especially bar-girl aspirations.
