New Haven: Yale University Press, 2006. This volume tells the story of the life of the former King of Thailand, and, by the time of his death, his seventy-year rule - how a Western-raised boy came to be seen by his people as a living Buddha, and how a king widely seen as beneficent and apolitical could in fact be so deeply political and autocratic. Banned in Thailand, as is any/all commentary even remotely critical of the royal family. "One of the most important books on Thailand to appear in English." Ian Buruma, New York Review of Books. xi, 499 pp. First Edition. Hardbound. New/new. 24 x 16 cm..

Thailand's Bhumibol Adulyadej, the only king ever born in the United States, came to the throne of his country in 1946 and is now the world's longest-serving monarch. This book tells the unexpected story of his life and 60-year rule: how a Western-raised boy came to be seen by his people as a living Buddha; and how a king widely seen as beneficent and apolitical could in fact be so deeply political, autocratic, and even brutal. Paul Handley provides an extensively researched, factual account of the king's youth and personal development, ascent to the throne, skilful political maneuverings, and attempt to shape Thailand as a Buddhist kingdom.
