Measures 8 ½” tall and 5 ¾” wide and 1” thick. Some of Chapter 1 – “ The great heat of the day was over, and Bangkok had begun to crawl out of its hovels and palaces for a breath of air. Austins, Fiats, and Chevrolets debouched from the narrow downtown streets and headed for the Sports Club. The men and women who rode in them had the pallid well-laundered appearance of people who stay long in the tropics. Now that the working day was over, they were hurrying out to the edge of the city to play golf and tennis, or drink ginger beers and whiskey stingahs on the club verandas. In the canals that ran beside the streets naked brown children splashed, laughing and shouting. The sun glinted on their wet bodies. A Sikh watchman squatted cross-legged beside Sathorn Road polishing a brass bowl with ashes and dirt….India Severn saw all this, as she had seen it a thousand times before, without observing it. She had lived n Bangkok twenty-five years, since 1905, and the kaleidoscopic streets, the nauseous odor of the markets, and the arabesque beauty of temples and palaces were more familiar now than her native Chicago….”…etc… The outside hard back cover has some wear from age; scruffs, fading, small marks, scratches, red marks, wear on corners and edges. Inside pages have some wear from age; yellowing (especially on front and back inside cover – see pictures), has name on inside front cover – Virginia L.
