I was rather disappointed in this book and if I had known more about its content rather than judging by the title alone I probably would not have purchased.

An excellent book from an excellent series
31 Aug 2007
Format:Hardcover
This book is a good size, and photos are given full priority on each page. It's kept nice and simple with old on the left, new on the right, and with just as much informed commentary as you'd need running along beneath.
Only a few of the 'then' pics are from the 50s and 60s; the majority show the Berlin streets as they were before the devastation of the Second World War, and as such are as fascinating as looking at pictures of ancient Rome.
An excellent book from an excellent series.

Your Own Tour Guide
21 July 2008
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I purchased this book prior to spending a week in Berlin. I read through it on the train on the way to Berlin from Frankfurt and found that in contained great photography and solid background information on major landmarks. This book is not an in depth history of Berlin, but if you'd like to take a look at how things WERE compared to how they ARE and have the major sites explained in plain English, this book works well. It's a must have if you're traveling to the area, but makes a good coffee table book now as well.

Love this book on Berlin
13 July 2010
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought this book prior to visiting Germany. After my visit I enjoyed it even more as I could look through and remember the places that I visited and how breathtaking they were.
My trip was wonderful to Germany and this book is a favorite of mine now.
