2.5 stars This book is a little odd and unfortunately not at all what I expected (perils of ordering on-line, sight unseen.) I had hoped for a photographic essay on what the DDR looked like in the early days of reunification, but it's actually focused on the remains of Schlösser, Burgen, Gutshäuser, etc.,i.e., remnants of the landed gentry. Nothing wrong with that, just not my interest.
