23/10/2011
Excerpt from the Bangkok Post

Siam Tee Mai Tan Dai Hen is the updated version of a book published in 2006. It's a compilation of rare antique photos, prints, and newspaper articles from 1861 that centre on the unique relationship between Thailand and Cambodia, two countries which have repeatedly alternated between being friends and foes.

SIAM TEE MAI TAN DAI HEN (SIAM-KHMER: THE UNTOLD STORY): 248pp, 2011, Post Books. 1,250 baht. In Thai.
The new version adds 12 articles and essays from the renowned historian Krairoek to the already stunning compilation of photographs. Siam Tee Mai Tan Dai Hen is ideal for readers who want to go beyond the recent political conflicts and border disputes and delve into what the bilateral balance was like 150 years ago. It is a journey that reveals how much the two neighbours have in common.
