Book desription: Leipzig:: Karl Baedeker, 1914. 1st edition in English. Red cloth binding. Published only months prior to the outbreak of the First World War, after which most travelers in Russian were toting weapons, and the monarchy would never be the same. Possibly the scarcest first edition in the Baedeker series due to immediate obsolescence/George Allen & Unwin and Chas. Scribner's Sons publishers' notice pasted to title page below Baedeker notice, partially obscuring the publication date. A well worn copy with tape repairs to chipped covers. A few of the folding maps also have tape repairs and reenforcements. One signature loose. All maps are present. A complete and well-traveled copy of this scare title. Illustrated throughout with 40 maps and 78 plans.
