Short Description
"Karl Ludwig Johannes Baedeker (/ˈbeɪdɪkər/ BAY-dik-ər, German: [ˈbɛːdəkɐ]; 3 November 1801 – 4 October 1859) was a German publisher whose company, Baedeker, set the standard for authoritative guidebooks for tourists.

Karl Baedeker was descended from a long line of printers, booksellers and publishers. He was the eldest of ten children of Gottschalk Diederich Bädeker (1778–1841), who had inherited the publishing house founded by his own father, Zacharias Gerhard Bädeker (1750–1800). The company also published the local newspaper, the Essendische Zeitung, and the family expected that Karl, too, would eventually join the firm." - (en.wikipedia.org 28.06.2021)
