Bangkok: Orchid Press, Date: 2010. The magical isle of Bali has captured the hearts and imaginations of millions, ever since visitors from the West began to arrive in the early 20th century. Incredibly, ancient Balinese cultural traditions remain richly intact today, in the face of, and alongside, 21st century modernity and a highly developed tourist industry. Yet few visitors ever really begin to understand the colourful pageantry that surrounds them virtually everywhere they travel on the island. Unpretentious and easily readable in its approach and encyclopaedic in its coverage, Secrets of Bali is the key to this understanding. From Balinese life, religion, festivals and offerings, architecture, music, dance, textiles, dress, carvings and paintings, masks, manuscripts, meals and much, much more, this is the book to which the visitor can turn for the answers. Each chapter is written both as a part of the overall narrative, and as a 'stand alone' reference on the topic addressed. If you buy only one book in addition to a standard travel guide, this is the volume for you. A recent review in the Bali Times named it "the best book about the island since 1990". A 'must read' for foreign visitors, residents, and those everywhere who have fallen under the spell of 'The Morning of the World'. 440 pp., 110 line drawings, 1 map, glossary, bibliography, index.. First Edition. Soft Cover. New. 21 x 14 cm.. 2010. Orchid Press ISBN 9745241180 ...
