O knihe

"There have been innumerable scholarly and scientific histories written on Bavaria, in German, and several excellent works on various phases of her remarkable history, and of the vivid personalities which so invade her past, in English. The guide books which are to be found in all her more important towns and cities are very adequate, although of necessity much has to be left untold, owing to their size, and concentrated as they chiefly are on the one place in question.
Bavaria is indeed pregnant with an all embracing interest; her cities, towns, villages, mountain ranges and peaks so full of the romance of folk-lore, legend and the eternal tragedies of the past. The very atmosphere in which they exist is potent with an aroma of the most fascinating and awesome periods of the world's external and spiritual developement.

Mystery enshrouds the beginnings of all European countries!
But in the Southern Germanic lands perhaps, the silence is the most profound. For "there is no beginning in our memory of the Celtic race". One's imagination must make a vast sweep to go back over the peaks of time, one thousand four hundred years before Christ, and even farther still, to the prehistoric period of Bavaria. But we must attempt this momentary vision, for it is only thus that we can trace her upward fluctuations and developement through the long centuries." [...]

This wonderful book is a reprint of the original published in 1906. It shows the history of Bavaria including details on special cities like Munich, Bayreuth, Nuremberg, Oberammergau, Augsburg, Rothenburg and several more.
