Prague is at the core of everything both wonderful and terrible in Western history, but few people truly understand this city’s unique culture. In Prague in Black and Gold , Peter Demetz strips away sentimentalities and distortions and shows how Czechs, Germans, Italians, and Jews have lived and worked together for over a thousand years. .
