Where the Strange Trails Go Down
In this volume, E. Alexander Powell describes his 1920 travels in Southeast Asia. From the Philippines to Borneo, Java, Singapore, the Malay peninsula, and on to Siam and then Saigon in Indochina, Powell not only photographed his stops but took a movie cameraman to document his encounters as well. It describes the situation among the colonial governments--the US, Britain, the Netherlands, and France--as things appeared right after World War I. The only independent country he visited was Siam.
