Wow
After being out of print for so long, I was excited to see this book in print and available! Of course it's Herzog who ends up hiking through a blizzard from Munich to Paris. The diary is really beautiful. Lots of incredible descriptions of the countryside, moments of madness, and plenty of that Herzog charm. The design's incredible, too! You don't really see books like this ever.

Tanam Pr, 1980

This edition is illegitimate. Alan Greenberg, co-translator
As co-translator and writer of the book's English language adaptation, I recommend that this Tanam Press edition be rejected as illegitimate, due to grievous editing errors on almost every page. The more recent Jonathan Cape (UK) edition is far superior, being closer both to Werner's vision and that of my original English adaptation.

Herzog inspires on each page, whether it be by his own personal experience or by the bombastic words that he barks onto the page.
