To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The river is not deep here, and as I sat at breakfast near the ford, I saw several Yoons cross over to the little Shan village of Mai Hoon Ehoon on the opposite bank. The population across the border continues to be Shan for a couple of days' journey, before Yoon villages become plentiful. The northern extremity of Siam, with which we are concerned here, is divided into two provinces called Payab and Maharat. It will be seen from the map that these districts form a rough square with the Salween... area making the western side, the Mekong area the eastern, and the Keng Tung State the northern. Roughly in the middle of this hollow square is the large town of Chieng-mai, which has a population of 50, 000 people. * Chieng-mai, which the Burmese call Zimme, is a big trade centre, and the most important town in northern Siam, so far as Keng Tung is concerned. It is the seat of a Viceroy (a prince of royal blood), and the residence of a British Consul. It is also the objective of the Northern Siamese Railway which is creeping up to it from Bankok, and is already open as far as Nakawn Lampang.
