DIE DRESDNER RADDAMPFERFLOTTE / Müller

The Saxon steam shipping company commanded in their time the largest and
oldest side-wheel steamship fleet in the world, and the sound of paddlewheels,
the rhythmic running of the steam engines, the occasional bell of the telegraph
and the steam whistle that could be heard for miles bring guests back to those
bygone times. In this picture book, multiple photos, some of great historical
value, as well as detailed ships lists of all passenger paddleboats on the upper Elbe,
provides a bridge between the tourist-oriented view of Dresden and its environs
and a sophisticated documentation of the past and present of this exceptional steam fleet.
