VIEW TO THE SOUTHEAST

Pub Date: Oct. 2nd, 1957
Publisher: Harper

With no purpose in mind except pleasure, Miss Rau (accompanied by her husband, son and a friend) revisits the exotic lands of Southeastern Asia. Informally, Miss Rau describes the contrarieties of Manila, Vietnam, the red earth of Cambodia, the appealing Laotians, the happy Balinese and the optimism of Laos. Unfortunately she seems to have lost some of that warmly personal touch which makes a travelogue an experience.
