Review(s)
Robert Pringle, former U.S. ambassador to Indonesia, provides a fair and balanced overview of the social and political history of Bali. Mention Bali and most people think Paradise. While the island's beauty, unique culture, and friendliness cannot be denied, neither can its history...slavery up until the late 1800's, mass suicides in the face of Dutch invasions, the fratricide of the 1960's which resulted in the killing of 1000's - still a taboo subject among the Balinese. This is a short and easy read for anyone interested in the real Bali. https://www.amazon.com/product-reviews/1865088633/ref=acr_dp_hist_5?ie=UTF8&filterByStar=five_star&reviewerType=all_reviews#reviews-filter-bar
