Item description from seller

'Log Pond' is the translation of the name of the village in the impoverished rural area of Isan where Klausner first lived as an idealistic young adventurer in 1955. Many of the essays in this volume describe the patterns of daily life, toil and worship, as well as the characters, of the village that he called home. Former owner's name on FFEP; internal pages all clean and unmarked. [ix], 138 pp. plus 18 pp. ill.'s, incl. 1 col. and 47 b&w photos. Size: 21 x 16 cm.
