This small, handy paperback packs a punch, as you've never seen the Berlin Wall so compactly before.
On 40 pages, the entire course of the Berlin Wall (approx. 160 km) is shown on a detailed map. The other two-thirds of the content consists of numerous elaborate 3D graphics, maps, illustrations, and infographics on the following topics: Bernauer Straße, the construction of border installations, the wall generations, the watchtowers, the barrier elements, this side and the other side of the wall, military installations, territorial exchange, the wall victims, escapes, border security and border crossings, the remnants of the wall and the Wall Cycle Path, timeline.
This book dispenses with lengthy texts and thrives on knowledge transfer through infographics and images. Therefore, it is particularly suitable for children and young people and for use in schools.
The work was created in cooperation with the Berlin Wall Foundation, among others. The author Jan Schwochow has already published numerous infographic books, including DEUTSCHLAND VERSTEHEN (UNDERSTANDING GERMANY), WIRTSCHAFT VERSTEHEN (UNDERSTANDING ECONOMY) and DIE WELT VERSTEHEN (UNDERSTANDING THE WORLD).
