Wyndedanse A Royal Chronicle of 17th Century Siam

Wyndedanse is a historical novel about Siams decline from her consolidation & relative ascendancy in the 16th century, her gradual decline in the 17th century, to her fall in the next century at the hand of Burmese invaders, terminating in the destruction of Ayutthaya, Siams old capital. The characters & events in this novel reflect for the most part actual characters & events. Some liberties have been taken with places, situations, & sources in order to support the overall theme. Thai place names & words used in the text have been modernized. Ultimately it is a work of fiction that in no way wishes to usurp the functions of the historian, biographer, or the student of literature.Carr, Richard J. is the author of 'Wyndedanse A Royal Chronicle of 17th Century Siam' with ISBN 9780738812410 and ISBN 0738812412.
