For almost thirty years, from 1961 to 1989, Berlin was divided in two by the Wall. The border between the democratic state in the West and the communist state in the East ran right through the center of the metropolis.
Like the few remaining relics of the Berlin Wall, this book also warns against forgetting the past. The renowned journalist Christian Bahr recounts the history of this inhuman structure and guides the reader on eight tours to sites where traces of the Wall are still visible. This book is replete with the most important historic speeches (from Willy Brandt, John F. Kennedy, Erich Honecker), four contemporary witness accounts and a wealth of historical and recent photos.
