  Between the 13th and the 18th centuries, the land that was once Siam, and is now the heart of Thailand, saw the rise and fall of some of the most beautiful city states to grace the mainland of Southeast Asia. The remains of these cities constitute a large part of the Thai nation's cultural inheritance, and all are on the UNESCO World Heritage list. This book presents an accessible yet scholarly account of these city states, their art and architecture, accompanied by the gorgeous photography of Michael Freeman.
