<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><i>Floating in Sausalito</i> tells the story of the vibrant houseboat community in Sausalito, California--just across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco--where, in the 1950s, the beat and hippie counterculture created a houseboat outpost that has long since become part of the Bay Area's affluent alternative lifestyle. <p/>This community, the largest of its kind in the US, boasts colorful residents (both long-term and recent), innovative waterside architecture and a significant cultural history. Here, photographer Lars Strandberg and writer Lars Aberg, who have previously collaborated on the critically acclaimed book <i>West</i> (on the modern American West), create a seductive portrait of a sun-soaked floating bohemia.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>a gorgeous coffee table book, <i>Floating in Sausalito</i> (240 pages, Kerber Verlag, $45.95), that is rich in history, personal stories and Strandberg's vivid photographs.--Vicki Larson "Marinij.com"<br><br>a handsome and invaluable new large-format art book, <i>Floating in Sausalito</i>, released by German publisher Kerber Verlag.
