Title: go get a Lonely Planet guide for this sort of thing
Review: *this review refers to the 1999 edition*I know the entire region pretty well and have read the Thailand and Cambodia sections of the book. I say the best way to travel is without a guidebook (most of these places can be negotiated with maps alone), but if you're going to get one...The information that's in this book is pretty good, but there's not much of it. The layout looks good, but it isn't done with the visual economy of Lonely Planet guides, which have more information and are easier to read. (The LP guide is also easier to carry around, which is important for a SE Asia guide.)The Cambodia section in this guide is remarkably sparse.In short: get Lonely Planet's version, or don't get one at all. You might also try Fielding's, if they ever get around to updating it.
