Virgina's book recommendation :

" Thank you, for these lovely pages on Ludwig II and the Neuschwanstein Country! I have been studying Ludwig for about three-and-a-half years, and although I have not yet visited his homeland, I have gathered a collection of about 80 books and a dozen videos on him and his castles in a variety of languages. I really appreciate your giving such excellent information on Ludwig in your FAQ. "

 

For those who wish to read more in English on Ludwig II,
I recommend the books                       
more
small selection

"The Dream King" by Wilfrid Blunt and

"The Mad King" by Greg King (British edition).                                                

The former is a highly readable biography (published in 1970) that contains many photos of Ludwig and his world, including some nice color photos of the castles. The latter book was published first in the U.S. at the end of 1996, and gives an excellent summary of Ludwig's life. The British edition of this same title, however, was revised to reflect new information discovered by the author in October 1996 about the true cause of Ludwig's death. Two new chapters, "The Motive" and "The Crime," were added to the British edition, and other chapters dealing with the end of Ludwig's life were revised. This revised edition was published in the spring of this year by Aurum.

One German souvenir shop that is willing to mail items abroad. It is located at Linderhof, and run by Maria Wagner. She doesn't publish a catalog, so you have to have a pretty good idea of what you want to buy. She writes and reads English. Her address is:
