Step 2: Providing the same information as asked above, write a coherent paragraph about the book you selected. Pick a quote from the book and incorporate it into your text. Provide full bibliographical information at the end in a "Works cited" portion of your post.

The book "Thailand" by Roger Jones caught my attention at first because it is a small, pretty, and new looking book. And then when I read the name of the book, I felt interested in reading it. "Thailand" has complicated information since it is about a country outside of the United States, Thailand. the book was printed the first time by Kuperard in Great Britain in 2003. And then it was distributed by Random House Distribution Services in the United States and Canada. The book is also printed in Malaisia. The book is about the customs and culture of Thailand. At the first line of the introduction, "To most outsiders Thailand represents the East at its most mysterious and enigmatic" (Jones 8), the author states a general information of the book.
