In the dying days of the Vietnam War, a royal family is rounded up and flown by
helicopter to a remote prison camp. Behind the bamboo curtain erected by
victorious communist guerillas, the tragic final days of an Asian king and his
dynasty will play out. Bestselling author of the Carpet Wars, Christopher
Kremmer takes readers on a gripping odyssey to Indochina's heart of darkness,
the remote prison camp where the Kingdom of the Million Elephants and the White
Parasol finally ends. Part travelogue, part mystery, Bamboo Palace reveals the
only known eye-witness account of the final solution carried out in the jungles
of northern Laos. 'thrilling ... a marvellous gift for the well-turned phrase' -
