Berlinwalks [Idioma Inglés] - Softcover

Reseña del editor

Four walking tours through Berlin are described in this book, with information aimed the intelligent traveller, and a select list of bars, restaurants, hotels, shops and museums. A brief introduction offers practical information and advice on how to get around and adapt to the culture and customs of Berlin, and the walks all approach the city from different perspectives: Berlin as a small medieval commerical town; as the capital of 19th-century Prussia; as the "new Rome" of the Third Reich; as a divided city and the front line of the Cold War; and as the capital of a reunited Germany. The book also traces the city's cultural development through its artists, architects and novelists, including Bertolt Brecht and Kurt Weill.
