Book A Diplomatic History of Thailand Prince Wan Waithayakon Translated by Vijavat Isarabhakdi ISBN 978-616-341-115-0 (Download .pdf below)

In September 2021, the International Studies Center reprinted the Thai edition of A Diplomatic History of Thailand by His Royal Highness Prince Wan Waithayakon Krommun Naradhip Bongsprabandh to celebrate the 130th anniversary of his birth. The book represents the ISC’s effort to reprint rare volumes as reference materials on the subject of Thai diplomacy.

This book was first published in Thai in 1943. It was translated into English in 1991 by Dr. Vijavat Isarabhakdi and published by the ISC, with the financial support from the Office of the National Culture Commission (now the Ministry of Culture), to mark the Centennial of H.R.H. Prince Wan Waithayakon, Great Diplomat and Scholar. Therefore, it is appropriate that the ISC also reprint the English edition on this occasion for the benefit of non-Thai speaking readers.
