Description
16mo (4 1/4" x 6 1/2"), red cloth, gilt title on front cover, illustrated with maps, 489 pp. Some slight wear at extremities, minor aging, a crisp and bright copy and very good plus overall. 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. This information was often edited by Baedeker himself, and sons would take over and expand the business after his death. This edition provides detailed information, including money tables, rail and steamship options, along with many folding maps and plates of Belgium and Holland. ODB
