Berlin Spatial Structure of a Divided City

It is of value to the student of urban and political geography as a study of the unique. It is inevitably a text for reference in a school library although it should become essential reading for all German studies students." -"Geography "Prepared for the 750th anniversary of the founding of Berlin, this book gives an interesting and thorough picture of the many anachronisms imposed on this city by events of the last half century....Elkins rationalizes historical and modern patterns of development, drawing on studies of urban growth familiar to American students of cities. . . . Key points are illustrated with well-prepared maps. An excellent text for courses in urban geography." -"ChoiceElkins, T.
