Myanmar: Burma in Style by Caroline Courtauld
An isolated and remote country, unspoiled by mass tourism, Myanmar aka Burma is for the curious traveller, not the average tourist. This book takes you on a tour of Burma from the great Ayeyarwady River to Kipling's Mandalay, the last of Burma's royal capitals. It also explores the exotic Inle Lake whose inhabitants live on floating islands.
