Reviewer: Jaco Rheeder (Boksburg, Gauteng, South Africa) - Masterfully photographed, and printed on high quality paper, this book is a must have for any armchair traveler. The book provides a map of the region on the inside cover, and then follows a brief and informative historical overview, which introduces the region to the reader. From that point onwards the book consists of one splendid photograph after the other, very often on a full page, or even spread over double pages, all with short descriptions to accompany them. The book depicts rural country scenes as well as historical landmarks, grand vistas to great architectural photos and even prominent statues. In short, everything the region has to offer.
