Reviews:
“An ironic historical perspective, doses of broad humor and a wide range of Thai characters’.
James Eckhardt, Phuket Gazette
“The characters were so representative of the people I had met in Pattaya that I felt I knew many of them alreadyâ€.
Temujin, Prostitution Research Centre
“I think Peter Jaggs’ books are in danger of being recognized as modern classics of Pattaya. I have never read anything so good set amongst the sois and bars of Pattayaâ€.
Richard Ravensdale, Pattaya Trader
“There are more than a few books by farangs about Pattaya, ‘From Beggar to Butterfly’ one of the best. While perusing it James Michener’s tales of the South Pacific came to mindâ€.
Bernard Trink, Bangkok Post
