embo970's review against another edition

Go to review page

1.0

This book is dry, filled mainly with critiques and quotes from many other books and contemplating how difficult it is to write a travel book about Germany. The little information or anecdotes the author does give usually only leads into 10 more pages of quotes and contemplating how difficult it is to write a travel book about Germany. The author lived in Hamburg, and that's what he mainly writes about. I don't get the feel he visited many other places.
