About This Item
Baedeker, 1899-01-01. 18th Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Red cloth. Good binding and cover. xxxiv, 512 pages : illustrations, maps, plans ; 16 cm. With 54 maps, 12 plans and 12 panoramas. Clean, unmarked pages. <br><br> Founded in 1827, Baedeker guides gained popularity during the second half of the 19th century (so much so that Baedekering became part of everyday language). They were an invaluable and essential part of civilized travel in the fin-de-siecle. Baedeker guides were known for both their accuracy and attention to detail. Included in each are intricate colored fold-out maps and floor plans. Baedekers comments and recommendations open a fascinating window into the mores of a world now past.
