2/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Aug-12-2007; Daytrips Germany; Useful but boring, the same format over and over. The 2002 edition I just received is really out of date. Maps are less useful since part of the print becomes part of the binding. Rick Steve's book, Germany and Austria 2007, is so much...; read full review | report as inappropriate
