Angkor Essential: four articles about Angkor past and present
While writing his highly acclaimed book about ancient Cambodia, 'God King of Angkor - A Novel of Tyranny', Gregory A. Waldron published several articles about Southeast Asia's magnificent lost empire.
The articles in Angkor Essential draw on Waldron's many trips to Cambodia in addition to hours of interviews with experts on ancient Khmer society, culture, architecture, and politics. They cover the Khmer empire's history, offer tips on avoiding the tourist hordes, and reveal a rarely visited, yet spectacular, attraction that is but a short distance from the major temples.
Angkor Essential will interest and benefit readers contemplating a trip to Angkor, or those with a general interest in Southeast Asian history.
