.To Asia with Love: A Connoisseurs Guide to Cambodia, Laos, Thailand Vietnam
City Travel Guides > Books > Cambodia
by: Kim Fay

January 01, 2005
Although this is a beautiful looking book, the content is poorly laid out and confusing. That might be because, as claimed, its not a real tour guide (like Frommer's, etc.). My question after reading it is, what exactly is this book and what is the author attempting to achieve. All the information is readily available online, and there simply isn't enough here to either recommend it or to even pick it up and read it for a second time!! The information just isnt unique enough and the lay out is confusing. I'd say stick to the traditional guide books.

.Moon Handbooks Vietnam, Cambodia, & Laos
City Travel Guides > Books > Cambodia
by: Michael Buckley

February 28, 2006
This is the best guide available. Moon travel beats the major competitor (the main travel-trail eye-sore creator) in almost all respects, but not all.

Moreso than other travel guides, the Moon travel guide for Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia has tons and tons of recent political, social and economic history in addition to significant cultural notes that a visitor *must* be aware of. (i.e., what does a South East Asian smile mean?) The maps of the cities and provinces are excellent. the all-important overland border-crossings between 'Nam, Laos, and Cambo are cleary marked. This is one of the many reasons that Moon can't be beaten at the moment. This guide's overland itineraries are the best. Example: you want to go into China overland ... Read More:

.The Ends of the Earth: From Togo to Turkmenistan, from Iran to Cambodia, a Journey to the Frontiers of Anarchy
City Travel Guides > Books > Cambodia
by: Robert D. Kaplan

January 28, 1997
I bought this book for its rave reviews and thought I would learn something from it. When reading his chapters about Iran, I was quite disappointed to see that Kaplan does little more than to be taken around by his handlers to those they wished him to see and talk to. Furthermore, he does even less than a newcomer to the field would do; he does not even provide context or background. One of his primary interview subject is Mohsen Rafighdoost who stole so much that even his own backers could not tolerate him. Kaplan is also historically inaccurate and downright deceptive. He characterizes the Zoroastrian religion as pagan. He either does not know or he does this maliciously. This oldest monotheistic religion has been studied and discussed about ... Read More:
