Thajsko je kaleidoskopem obrazů, historie, emoce, národem tisíci tváří v pulzujícím srdci Asie.

A wild, often hilarious, ride down Thailand's longest river. A tiny teak boat set in the Ping River deep in the Golden Triangle takes the author on a 58-day voyage of discovery through Thailand's heart. Along the way, he meets Sin the Buffalo Man, the Cowboys of Tha Sala, Jamrat and the "Boom Boom Girl", and dozens of other intriguing characters. One dark night, poachers prey on him; on another, he is a murder suspect, as he learns far more about rural Thailand - and himself - than he bargained for. --- from book's back cover
