Yes, I liked it. I don't really know why I have it in the first place - but it's probably a find from a book exchange shelf somewhere. The book is a a kind of a travel guide with a good portion of history, archaeology and even some language content. Each chapter starts with a possible etymological definition of the place name.
Thanks for the link to that German podcast!
