Adam and Charles Black were publishers in Edinburgh who began publishing their travel guides in 1839. Their chief competitors were the Baedeker Guides. The Black Tourist Guides were considered more colloquial, and less pretentious. This is a lovely guide to Killarney and the South of Ireland with a map of Cork and a fold-out map of Killarney district. The fold out has breaks along those folds and slight discoloration but no missing bits. All kinds of interesting information inside including the tune from the Eagle’s Nest Echo.Very Good Condition: 12mo: green Publisher’s cloth with gilt design on front of Black’s oval frame with a shamrock inside: name in blue inside front: Frontispiece “Lakes of Killarney”: fold out map with splits and some discoloration due to age: map of Cork with the River Lee colored in blue: 72 pages of advertising of a variety of hotels and travel arrangements at the rear: slight discoloration of paper due to age: list of Black’s Guide-Books at rear with side pasted to rear lifted from bottom up at outside corner: “Black’s Guide to Killarney and the South of Ireland with Chart of Killarney District and Plan of Cork”: Edinburgh: Adam and Charles Black: 1872.…
