Description

“a simple blueprint for Utopia” – the best travel book on Burma since World War II – despite travelling at a time of massive internal insecurity, Norman Lewis still found the eternal Burma, where pagodas are the only punctuation on the horizon and strangers are treated with an overwhelming friendliness – an overnight best-seller when first published – revisits the tragic Burma road, treked by so many refugees fleeing Burma before the Japanese advance in 1942
