Excerpt from NurembergFrom the gloomy recesses of the underground cells of the Rathaus, still haunted, as they seem to be, by the spirits of the tortured and Often innocent prisoners who there breathed their last, after undergoing nameless sufferings, or from the dim room in the Five-cornered Tower, where the grim Iron Maiden awaits in vain fresh victims for her cruel embrace, the student of history may pass in a few minutes to the automatic restaurant, where he can obtain pretty well any thing he fancies to eat and drink by putting a ten-pfennig piece into the right slot, and listen to the ear-splitting strains of mechanical musical instruments, kept constantly at work by juvenile enthusiasts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
