Fantastic & breathtaking photographs throughout, but I have the feeling this book was translated into English, possibly from German judging by the author/photographer names, and someone did a very poor job in the English translation process.

However, if you can overlook the poor text and want to enjoy some beautiful photography of this amazing country and/or collect large, coffee table style books, then this is worth having, but don’t pay retail price - take advantage of Amazon’s discount!
