16mo (4 1/4" x 6 1/2"), red cloth, gilt title on top cover and spine, illustrated with maps, 624 pp. Spine joints a bit split, front endpapers loose, browning and aging, not collated, but appears complete; otherwise good Karl Baedeker (1801-1959) was born in Essen, and attended Heidelberg University. His family was involved in the publishing and bookselling business, and around 1828 he entered the travel guide business. Baedeker created a different kind of travel book that opened up tourism for a new class of travelers, by guiding the tourist to the principal attractions in a country or area. Provides considerable information about Great Britain and London, and contains almost 30 maps. ODB. #
