Siam, The Land of the White Elephant: As It Was and Is is a book written by George Blagden Bacon in 1892. The book provides a comprehensive description of Siam, a country located in Southeast Asia, which is now known as Thailand. Bacon writes about the history, culture, and traditions of Siam, as well as its geography, flora, and fauna. He also describes the political and social systems of the country, including the monarchy, the army, and the bureaucracy.
