A lot of the stuff I read from travel magazines from Thailand. I also have books on the designs and architectures of the classical Siamese from the Sukothai, Lanna, Ayutthaya, and right up to the Rattanakosin era. I've also read some online, about Thailand history. My mom and relatives and also Thai satelite channel are other sources i get info from.
I hope I answers your question!
