3.0 out of 5 stars
A beautiful book but not a very practical travel guide.......,
By Pat (Thailand; USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Knopf Guide: Thailand (Knopf Guides) (Paperback)
Knopf guide Thailand is a very beautiful book, compact in size with lots of glossy pictures, well detailed with plenty of illustrations and full of pertinent information about the country and its history. A Knopf guide makes for a good suppliment assuming that you have a more practical travel guide with you such as lonely planet. The problem with the Knopf guide is its limitations. A good guide if you were going to Thailand with a tour group and all of your travel details were being handled for you but not very practical for the "adventure tourist" who likes to plan and tailor there holidays independently. This guide falls short by not providing enough information about "dos and don'ts", "dangers and annoyances", etc. Another problem with the Knopf guide is that it is not updated frequently enough (probably due to the high cost in publishing this book). The last edition before this 2005 edition was done in 1994.
