OF BALI STYLE is the first book ever created specifically about
fascinating Sanur. The book was written by six authors (Christopher

and photographed by Leonard Lueras, the director of the Publications
Division of the Yayasan Bali Purnati. Additional photographic contributions
were made by the photographers Jason Childs, Jan Lovett and Gil
Rosellini.
Chapters of the Sanur book include special essays about Historic Sanur, The Art of Sanur, The Music and Dance of Sanur, Sanur Style, Voices of Sanur, The Magic of Sanur and Surfing Sanur. |

| KUTA
AND KUTA |
||
tells the remarkable
story of how a previously sleepy Balinese fishing village on the
Indian Ocean was transformed -- within a brief modern period of
about 30 years -- into the number one visitor destination in this
vast archipelago-nation we know as Indonesia. It is a look at Kuta's
easy-going past and a zany present replete with culture, surfers,
hippies and adventurers. |

KUTA AND KUTA or KUTA DAN KUTA,
is the third book in a new trilogy of books recently created about
South Bali. It was published by the Yayasan Bali Purnati and is
a sequel title to two previous books published about Sanur (Sanur,
The Birthplace of Bali Style, launched in Sanur on 4 September,
2005) and Ubud (Ubud Is A Mood, which was released in the Sping
of 2004).
The Kuta book was directed
and designed by Leonard Lueras, photographed by Jason Childs, Christopher
Leggett and Lueras, and written by Jeremy Allan, Bruce Carpenter,
Richard Flax, Von and Evie Hatch, Kevin Lovett and Peter Steenbergen. |
