Yep. Really well done there are sections in other languages, but the pictures are still very good.

I just finished reading through mine - well worth it. A great selection of photos through all the generations. It's almost 1000 pages long!

It is substantial (size-wise).

Okay, it big. 962 pages. Which is better than 956. But not nearly as good as 991.

Got mine the other day, found one on ebay brand new in full Porsche Museum package for $57 US!!

Compilation of factory photos and ads, many previously published but many not. Nicely done, quality piece......and HEAVY! Of course it would have been even better at 993 pages.

Default Dieter Landenberger

Dieter Landenberger is a great guy and a personal friend. Attached is a photo of him taken by me at the Porsche Archives located on the second floor of the Porsche Museum at Zuffenhausen. He was kind enough to give me a personal tour of Stuttgart on my last trip to the factory in April of 2013, including a visit to the Porsche family villa on Feuerbacher Weg and the initial Reutter assembly location for the prototype 1950's 356 (pre-A's) on Augustenstrasse.

I have the book too. It's a great read, not much text on it but engaging.

One thing to note is it covers through the 911 50th car and turbo in 2013. The Targa and obviously the GTS 991s are not covered--but nevertheless a great book and good quality paper and hardcover.
