Delaporte, Louis and Francis Garnier; Pictorial Journey on the Old Mekong, A: Cambodia, Laos and Yunnan, Vol. 3 of the Mekong Exploration Commission Report (1866-1868) In this third part of the Mekong Exploration Commission Report, 1866-1868, published as an oversized volume with numerous splendid color plates and four maps, the journey along the Mekong is retraced using plates not published in the two other volumes on the Mekong Expedition as well as by masterfully drawn color plates of tribal costumes from the regions the Commission passed through. This volume graphically supplements the descriptive reports of the Commission's work and can be read fruitfully in its own right as a journey along the Old Mekong.
