This book shows black and white photographs of the line of Grundig Satellit radios from their inception. It includes the more recent Grundig Satellit 800 which was produced by the Eton company. The newer Grundig Satellit 750 is not included in this book if you are wondering.The author, obviously well versed in these radios, presents a chronological listing of the line of Grundig Satellit radios and I thank him for that work. I am glad to own this book.I gave the book only three stars for two main reasons. The sentence structure and consequent choice of words was very distracting to me and often prevented me from understanding just exactly what the author was saying. He obviously knows his subject but English is not his first language and, because of this, the information transfer to me has gaps.The second reason is that the grayscale photographs are poorly presented. They appear grainy or as low resolution images. He does mention that if you go to his website there are higher resolution color images there. I will do that in the near future.Books, such as this one, are very useful over time. Collectors are kept informed and so are more likely to seek models that they wouldn't have known about, thus making the hobby of radio collecting interesting and active. So I would recommend you purchase this book while it is still available.I would love to read a book about the inside, behind the scenes, events that led up to the production of any or all of these radios. But that would take an author interviewing and researching those people and documents that are still available. Then, once the book was produced, it would need be critiqued by someone who spoke and wrote the language fluently for the country it was to be published in.
