Berlin: The Biography of a City

Written by the authors of "The Fall of Berlin", this book tells the story of Berlin both through political events and through a vast range of extraordinary personalities: politicians, soldiers and businessmen, artists, writers and performers, and the often bizarre Hohenzollern princes who ruled the city before 1918. Above all, they tell the story of the "little people" - wave after wave of immigrants transformed into that unique character, the Berliner.
