Description:

The time is the 1860s, the place Siam (now Thailand), one of the few parts of Asia not colonized by a Western power. Enter Anna Leonowens, an Englishwoman engaged by King Mongkut as tutor to his children and translator for his letters to foreign leaders and diplomats. Anna's most important pupil was the young prince who became Thailand's next king. From her he learned about Abraham Lincoln; as king he abolished slavery and introduced other Western style reforms. Mixing fact with fiction, this classic, bestselling story, written more than fifty years ago, continues to enchant and delight audiences around the world. "A remarkable book...The story...is magnificent." (New Republic)
