"Quests of the Dragon and Bird Clan" examines how the seafaring trading people known as the "Nusantao" from Insular Southeast Asia influenced world history. This is a "blook," a book based on a weblog (blog).
The decision to publish the book came after requests to make the information in the blog available in an easier-to-read and more portable format.
The advantage of the printed work is that the blog entries are arranged in easy-to-manage chronological order with out the need for the clicking through the blog archives. The glossary entries are also in alphabetical order for easy look-up, and a word index and table of contents further increase the readiblity of the blog/book.
Important supplementary articles have also been included in the appendices.
A must-read for those who think there is more to history than what we find in "mainstream" publications.
