Verlag Karl Baedeker, founded by Karl Baedeker on July 1st, 1827, is a German publishing company and pioneer in the business of worldwide travel guides. The guides are often referred to simply as “Baedekers” (a term sometimes used to refer to similar works from other publishers, or travel guides in general). They contain, among other things, maps and introductions, information about routes and travel facilities, and descriptions of noteworthy buildings, sights, attractions and museums, written by specialists. The first English editions appeared in 1861, under the direction of Karl’s son Ernst, and were instrumental in building the popularity of the Grand Tour with people outside the European upper class. Although other popular travel guides existed before and during the heyday of Baedeker (particularly the works of John Murray and Mountford J.B. Baddeley), they remained the best-selling guide among Europeans for nearly a century.
Condition
Foxing and tears throughout.
