Murray's hand-book to the Mediterranean

1882

Special Collections: D973.JM8 1882

London : J. Murray

This handbook is included as evidence of other uses to which travel guides may be put. One can easily imagine a character in A Room with a View placing a favourite flower into his or her Baedeker. Someone certainly did so with this volume, though we have not investigated whether this is a Mediterranean plant.
