New Asian Buddhist History 04: Sri Lanka and Southeast Asia: Buddhism in Stillness and Motion" - A reference book with useful information for visiting sacred sites in Sri Lanka.
The book provides information on the history of Buddhism in Sri Lanka and the local situation. It also talks about the Buddhist holy places in Sri Lanka, so it is a useful book for those who actually visit Sri Lanka. I found it very useful as I am also planning to visit Sri Lanka soon.
Of course, this is a reference book that looks not only at Buddhism in Sri Lanka, but also at Buddhism in other regions, so it can be read according to the interests of each.
It is rare to find a book that offers a comprehensive study of Southeast Asian Buddhism in a single volume. Although this work is not an easy introduction to Buddhism, it is a recommended book for those who want to learn more about Southeast Asian Buddhism.
