Bangkok Journal A Fulbright Year in Thailand

An American in Thailand paints a vivid picture of a fascinating society in this account of his year as a Fulbright pro­fessor at Chulalongkorn University in Bangkok. Garrett shows what the Fulbright pro­gram is really like, including such de­tails as dealing with the "web of bu­reaucratic eccentrics," finding housing, and coping with "live-in" snakes. M. Carlota Baca, Director of Academic Li­aison at the Council for International Exchange of Scholars, describes these diary entries as a "graceful blend of per­sonal reminiscence, travel literature, ru­mination on past U.S. foreign policy in Southeast Asia, and rather deft portrai­ture of human types."Garrett, Stephen A. is the author of 'Bangkok Journal A Fulbright Year in Thailand' with ISBN 9780809312757 and ISBN 0809312751.
