Out of print From the 1995 Preface: National Parks of Thailand … is the most comprehensive book on this subject to date. It is a useful guide to the natural wonders of these 77 protected reserves. However, it does not present a picture postcard version of what visitors will see and experience as does the bulk of current tourist literature about Thailand. Thus we believe that ours is a pioneering effort, and one which we hope others will pursue. We have attempted to explain some environmental issues and indicate serious problems to the interested park visitor. We hope the more casual tourist will also be moved to awareness and action by the drama being played out within these parks between exquisite, age-old beauty and grave, potentially terminal threats. * Denis Gray is a committed environmentalist and Southeast Bureau Chief at Associated Press. Mark Graham was a widely respected amateur photographer and naturalist with, among other things, an expert knowledge of tigers. He died in a plane crash in southern Thailand in 1998.
