Adam Fletcher tells us about his teutonic adventures and explains why he loves the Germans so much! This dual-language, German-English, book is perfect for both language learning Ausländers and international Germans. Lovingly written, with a lot of humour without the usual national clichés.
Some of the highlights from the book:
