The Colours of Thailand Review






The Colours of Thailand Overview


The saffron of monks' robes, the iridescent green of the fields, the fierce red of a boxer's gloves...Thailand's colors show the essence of its many characters. It is a country alive with a myriad of striking images. Renowned travel photographer Barbara Lloyd captures the heart of this country--its temples, hill tribes, ancient sites, festivals, silks, spices, and jewel-like islands. She introduces a new color for the theme of each chapter, demonstrating the individual mood, personality, symbolic meaning, and uses of color in the everyday lives of the people of Thailand. Full of insights and countless visual treasures, this book will delight and fascinate anyone who has ever traveled, or dreamed of traveling, to one of the most fascinating countries in Asia.

Good pictures but too many mistake in name,places and map. - Pusit Attha-Ora-Ek (pusit@yahoo.com) - Seattle,U.S.A
In general,this book is good for picture but can not use it for getting to know THAIS and THAILAND. I am ,Thai who live in America,very disappointed to see the book that represent my culture and heritage was not proof before published.for example,The picture on page 31 shown Wat Phra Kaew but the book said:"Grand Palace,Bangkok.This building houses The Giant Reclining Buddha" instead of the Emerald Buddha.On page 87."The traditional WAI greeting,performed at a dance festival." We are Thai and never performed "wai" . More than that , 85% 0f the name of places, festival,locations,food,fruit,flower and map were wrong! Some picture was borrow from another source don't even get a credit. So,Thank for trying to do a good book about Thailand,but make sure to triple proof all information be fore it print.
