This book tells of how Zermatt has transformed from a small village of farmers to becoming the top modern spa resort it is today. Even though the book does not claim to be exhaustive, the author manages to illustrate the most important events in a concise manner and bring this moving story closer to the reader. It is the first book of its kind to include so much history about Zermatt.
With this book, Beat P. Truffer has succeeded in setting another benchmark about Zermatt’s past.
