This is one of those books that could be in your coffee table for years and no matter how many times you open it, there is something new to amaze you. The author is a global broker in the business of renting and selling islands. That's how he is able to show many private islands from several part of the world: England, BVI's, Italy, Maldives and many more including some celebrities' islands like the ones owned by Johnny Depp or Richard Branson. Don't be afraid when you read the first page and see everything in German, the book is written in German, English, Italian and, Spanish -I don't remember if French too-. I gave it 4 starts since I was not able to give it 3 ¾. I didn't like that more than half the islands are just shown in a single aerial picture similar to those found on internet. I whish the book could have more pictures of the houses or interiors in every island like the one on the cover which is worth the book. Besides that, the quality of the pictures was good.
