The Alfie Goes to Thailand series is dedicated to the people in Thailand, who have given me their time, affection and company gratuitously, and made me feel welcome in their beautiful Country. Without them this book would not have been possible.

Thanks to those who provided me with valuable information and gave me moral support, which helped me in the writing of this book. And to my Advanced Reader Team who make sure I don’t make too many gaffs when I publish my books.

And a special thanks to Dawn Rooney, who contributed with extracts from her article, ‘In the footsteps of Henri Mouhot.’ Published here http://rooneyarchive.net/index.html

And, thank you for reading my book.
