No fun to read, very little information, no real insight into the German character, many of the "facts" are contradicted by my personal experiences. How does the revelation that German post offices are a lot more modern than they used to be clue me in? Why does it deserve a star at all? It's short and cheap.
This book is geared for the American market, so loses a bit of impact for UK readers. It could perhaps have been better, if written in plain english, rather than giving the impression of being a bit padded out. It does have some useful information though SIMILAR ITEMS:

Fine but not the easiest book to read
