This is the story of a journey through Siam, how Thailand, and it tells how Major and Mrs Blake travelled into the furthest corners of this exotic country in their search for the magic and colour of the East. They were unaware of what lay before them and had no knowledge of the language, but undaunted they took their car to Thailand and set out on their travels over roads that were often jungle tracks. Here is a record of what they saw during the thousands of miles they travelled; the vivid colours of the East; the people; the temples; the royal palaces; the strange sports; the river caravans; snakes, elephants, and the savagery of the jungle; all these have a place in the story of their amazing journey.
