Baedeker Travel Guides.-

A collection of 83 volumes, the majority in original gilt cloth bindings, mixed condition, various sizes.

***Baedeker guides serve as a key motif in E. M. Forster's novel 'A Room with a View' (1908): '"But Miss Lavish has even taken away Baedeker." "Baedeker?" said Mr. Emerson. "I’m glad it’s that you minded. It’s worth minding, the loss of a Baedeker. That’s worth minding."' (p.21)
