Towards Angkor (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781021244451)

At the turn of the 20th century, the jungles of Cambodia were largely unexplored by Westerners. But one man, Quaritch Wales, was determined to change that. 'Towards Angkor' is his gripping account of his journey deep into the heart of the Cambodian wilderness, where he encountered ancient temples, fierce wildlife, and a proud and enigmatic people. Written in a style that combines adventure narrative with cultural commentary, this book is a fascinating glimpse into a world that was then largely unknown.
