Recensioner i media

'We are not only looking into an historical archive but have here a book which aims to clarify the present through the past and into the future... [the book] offers inspiration to take up the baton and continue the legacy of Konig's three-star personalities, of Steiner and Konig himself to decide for the positive when surrounded by negativity, to create good out of tragedy and to have faith in one's ideals.'-- New View
