BOOK DISCOVERY
Frommer's comprehensive travel guide, Bangkok
First published 1994
Frommer's comprehensive travel guide, Bangkok is an English-language guidebook by Ron Bozman, Kyle McCarthy, and John Levy, published in 1994. The supplied subjects identify guidebooks, while the title establishes Bangkok as the destination and emphasizes comprehensiveness. No specific recommendations or contents are provided, so none are inferred. The book’s metadata supports questions about the promise of completeness, the management of abundant travel information, and the tension between broad coverage and practical usability. Its early publication date also invites consideration of changing travel conditions.
