Few Europeans ventured into unknown Asia in the 19th century, and even fewer wrote so vividly and candidly about their travels. Carl Alfred Bock, a Norwegian natural scientist, was one of those intrepid travellers who published such an account. While his most famous work is The HeadHunters of Borneo published in 1881 in both Dutch and English, Temples & Elephants records Bock's journey to northern Thailand and Laos which had the support of H.M. King Chulalongkorn, to whom the book is dedicated. This fascinating account of travel in a remote part of Thailand is published as a special limited edition to include reproduction of the 40 colour plates by the author.
