I love this book. The photography is just fabulous. If you ever wanted to know what the German Castles and Palaces look like, or are planning a trip to Germany and would like to see some of them, this is the book for you! Also, the history is very informative. I just can't say enough for this book! I am an artist, and I have never seen such an artful display of art from a bygone era. WOW!

This is a great book, good photos and loaded w/ info. The only thing that I think would make it better would be show more pictures of the exterior of the palaces because some palace photos are all interior so you cant see what it looks like from the outside, but this is only on a few palaces. Overall, this is a great book and I would give it 4 1/2 stars if I could.

Really a thorough book, it seems to hit all the important castles and palaces and does a wonderful job of spending more time on the more important buildings. The pictures are very good, though I do agree with the reviewer that stated the book needed more exterior photos, allthough I still would not have rated it a five star book, but definitely four and a half. In order to have gotten five stars the author would have need to have focused more on the great palaces and much more time on Potsdam and Bavaria. This is a subject that needed and got a fine assessment. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in European architecture at it's best.
