From Prague Castle to the Velvet Revolution, Where Every Stone Has a Secret

From the grandeur of Prague Castle and the legends surrounding the Charles Bridge to the historic streets of the Old Town and the powerful memories of Wenceslas Square, this book explores how Prague grew from a medieval center into one of Europe's most fascinating capitals.
