Great book
I am a nativ and still find things that I didn't know about. Truly one of the best books about Stockholm. Great Book.

Simply an Excellent Guide: Great Visuals
I had just come from Gothenborg by train and was a bit dazed. I first discovered these books by accident in a Stockholm bookstore. The book I bought by accident was in swedish but it still useful because of all the photos, cut away views, museum pictures, and maps and historical details. When I got home I bought a pile on Amazon. com of different places that I was going or had visited - but in english.

On a cold day back here in the USA (or Canada) or elsewhere, have a glass of wine and sit in a nice chair or in the garden on a warm day and read this book. For a moment you will be back in Stocholm. You are back in a small restaurant overlooking the Baltic. Thats how good the photos are in these books.

The photos and desicriptions and cutaway drawings are excellent. Plus they throw in some history and details on the art and many other things of interest. A solid 210 page effort - lots of stuff to see and absorb. Incidentally Stockholm is a truly beautiful city and I am amazed that more people do not visit Sweden.

Great pictures, great layout, easy to read, informative
This book is great for those pressed for time, as it gives short overviews of sights in Stockholm, by neighborhood. We're planning a trip to Stockholm in Spring 2003. My only complaint: I wish it had more suggested itineraries. Beautiful pictures and interesting historical perspective throughout, not just in the introduction (as in many guides).
