Trip to Munich - Rated
I took this new publication to Munich along with other, older guides to the city - I found it enormously useful, better planned and more informative than the other guides. Understandably, perhaps, the authorities in Munich have somewhat toned down many of the Hitler-related sites. This book flags up important places and events that you might normally miss. I was on a reconnaisance trip for a modern history tour I'm doing for a group of sixth formers - I'll certainly use this (very portable!) book as part of the course material. Good stuff - am looking forward to the next guides.

Fascinating read - Rated
This book is truly amazing. The author takes us on this incredible journey
around Munich visiting old (and erased)) Nazi sites. How they can be left
in Munich is unbelievable. The flat where Hitler met Chamberlain is still
standing and happily occupied by a family. It all gave me the shudders.
These places need to be recognised and brought to our attention so that we
can learn from them; certainly not to be brushed under the carpet!

Apart from this fascinating insight into the German psyche, where the past
seems to have somewhat vanished, this book gives a potted history of the
time. Terrific! Can't wait to get to Munich and go hunting those sites.
