The existence for 25 years of the Federal Republic of Germany offers this occasion to review what, at the end of its massive reconstruction, "Germany" today represents to Germans themselves and to foreign visitors

Yet to portray present-day Germany fairly poses the problem of giving each of these elements maximum attention.
The country's natural attractions, from the Alps to the central highlands and on down to the sea, thrill millions of visitors each year.
Its cities, old and new, are progressive, yet tradition-minded. Time-honored landmarks stand next to daring experiments in architecture, giving towns a new appearance without destroying their original character.
Its up-to-date networks of railroads, highways and canals, modern harbors and airports connect Germany with all points of the globe. Its industrial production is in world-wide demand. And its great fairs and exhibitions attract the attention of almost every nation on earth.
Its people enjoy not only the beauties and delights of their country, but also the possibility of free time to enjoy them, to pursue their hobbies and, more than ever before, to appreciate the spiritual and intellectual qualities of their life.
How much the Federal Republic has to offer will soon become clear to anyone who looks at this book's outstanding collection of pictures.
