‎Superbe ouvrage sur les contes cambodgiens par l'illustre explorateur Auguste Pavie (1847-1925), maître d'uvre de la Mission éponyme en Indochine à la fin du 19e siècle. Auguste Pavie, à l'origine agent des télégraphes en Cochinchine, devint explorateur, ethnologue mais aussi photographe des rives du fleuve Mékong ("mission Pavie" 1889-1890). Il fut le premier vice-consul de France au Laos (1887), consul-général de France à Bangkok en 1892, puis commissaire général au Laos en 1893. Cest à lissue de son activité dans ces régions quil publie ces contes du Cambodge, un beau recueil illustré (parfois en couleur) de ces incroyables histoires au cur de la mythologie locale. 1 vol. in-4° (235 x 186 mm.) 29 color plates out of text and 101 figures in the text. Publisher cover. Superb work on Cambodian tales by the famous explorer Auguste Pavie (1847-1925), master of the eponymous Mission in Indochina at the end of the 19th century. Auguste Pavie, originally a telegraph agent in Cochin China, became an explorer, ethnologist and also a photographer on the banks of the Mekong River ("Mission Pavia" 1889-1890). He was the first vice-consul of France in Laos (1887), consul-general of France in Bangkok in 1892, then general commissioner in Laos in 1893. It is at the end of his activity in these regions that he publishes these tales of Cambodia, a beautiful illustrated collection (sometimes in color) of these incredible stories in the heart of local mythology.‎
