Regions in northeast Thailand
Abstract
This thesis is the result of part-time endeavours begun in 1964, to satisfy an interest created by
a second short visit to Northeast Thailand in that year. The original
plan envisaged the creation of an atlas of Northeast Thailand, similar to the "Atlas of Mysore
State: Volume 1", prepared in 1961 under the leadership of Professor Learmonth. In concept
it was to be a largely descriptive regional geography following traditional systematic lines and
with a final chapter synthesizing the data into a simple regional structure.
