Title: Please remember that this is an inexpensive picture-book, not a comprehensive reference
Product review: Seems like you either love this book, or you hate it. I appreciate it for what it is: cheap. It's a Dover book, which means that it throws a bunch of pictures at you for a relatively small price. While I would love to own a full-color copy (with complete text translated to English) of "Die Geschichte...," I have yet to find one. I would imagine that it would be pricey. It is true that this book is not 100% accurate. It is, however, beautifully illustrated and it gives you an idea of the general style of the time period, and (perhaps more importantly) the region. Use it as a jumping-off point in your research.
