A timely reminder of the upheavels, tragedies and triumphs of the Berlin century, this volume charts the experiences of Berliners from the heyday of pre-war Berlin, through the rise and fall of the Third Reich, post-war structures, and the building and destruction of the Wall. Through the ongoing photographic project of the Archiv fur Kunst und Geschichte (Archive for Art and History) to document the rebirth of the city, this book also brings us fully up-to-date with new images of the current face of the great German capital.
