English: This book contains a Thai translation of San Guo Yin (三國因; "Cause of the Three Kingdoms"), a Chinese novel by Zui Yue Shan Ren (醉月山人; "Moon-Drunken Mountain-Man"), the penname of a late-Qing scholar who cannot yet be identified. The work was translated into Thai by an unknown person who stated in the preamble of the work that the translation was done on Thursday, the 9th day of the waxing moon of the 6th month of the year 1247 Lesser Era, corresponding to Thursday, 22 April 2428 Buddhist Era (1885 Common Era). It is not known when the translation was first published. This book says that the original copy of the translation was partly impaired. Later in the year 2543 Buddhist Era (2000 Common Era), Thavorn Sikakosol checked the Thai translation against the original Chinese version he had obtained, and fixed all the impaired or erroneously printed parts thereof, resulting in a better version of the translation, which could be found in: Chit Kok Sai Han. (2002). (6th ed.). Bangkok: Fine Arts Department. ISBN 9744175354. (In Thai).
