Nära nyskick. S.k. danskt band med invikta flikar. En högkvalitativ bok vad gäller foto, färgåtergivning, papperskvalitet mm. The Khmer civilisation centered on Angkor was one of the most remarkable to flourish in SE Asia. Between the 8th and the 13th centuries, a succession of Hindu and Buddhist kings created magnificent temples in stone. These continue to fascinate today. The renowned French scholar Claude Jaques has studied Angkor and its history for the past 30 years while Michael Freeman has made many photographic trips there during a 15 year period. This book will serve both as a history of the temples in its own right and an invaluable companion guide. Text in English. Engelsk text.
