Spectacular photographs of people and rituals of Bali. Some historical info and a section on artists in Bali with examples of their work. With additional photos by Barbey, Cartier-Bresson, Haas, et... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This may not be THE book on Bali, but it seems to be the best book still in print... It covers all things balinese and more. It covers more than just the tourist stuff and talks about music, art, religion and the islands people. One of the best parts of the book is about the photographers mobile studio, which shows great photos of dancers and musicians. The book is from 1987, but does not seem dated. What I missed from the book was something on Balis wildlife, but the book "Tanah Air" is awesome and full of wildlife photos from all over Indonesia.
