In 1794, after the recent inheritance of his father's fortune, the twenty-two-year-old John Bacon Sawrey Morritt departed his native Yorkshire on a Grand Tour during which he traveled through Greece, Austria, Hungary, Asia Minor and Italy. He returned in 1796, whereupon he settled down to lead the life of the influential country squire of Rokeby Hall - situated between Richmond and Barnard Castle, and described by his friend Sir Walter Scott as 'one of the most enviable places I have ever seen'. Perhaps its attractions explain the fact that Morritt never again repeated the grand scale of the venture recorded and celebrated in this book, though he lived until 1843.A Grand Tour was not published until 1914: it forms an edited collection of Morritt's letters, written while en route, to his mother, sister and aunt. At once instructive, anecdotal and entertaining - whether dwelling on the balls and cafés of Vienna, or the pilfering of classical remains in Athens ('some we steal, some we buy') - this correspondence allows us to journey in the company of 'a man made on the purpose to travel with', in the words of a contemporary who had done just that.This edition of A Grand Tour includes and introduction by Peter J. Hogarth, who is a lecturer at York University. In addition to his many articles and publications, Dr. Hogarth is also the author of a book on dragons. He is himself well-traveled in the footsteps of J. B. S. Morritt.…

Cloth. Zustand: Very Good. First Edition. The period covered is the young student's years in the East End of London, a time of difficulty, trial, adventure and achievement. It has not been possible in this way to give a complete picture of the man, but I think the reader will gather some impression of his energy, determination, forcefulness, courage and faith. In providing a fresh setting for the stories contained in this book, some of which appear for the first time in volume form, I have been most careful to avoid exaggeration. The events recorded actually happened: it is only the method of telling that has been revised. Illustrated. 102 pp. Previous owners name to inside cover. Foxing to end pages. Couple of very slight marks to cloth.(We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions ,and all types of Academic Literature.).

Hardcover. Royal quarto. Complete with title-page printed in red & black, Contents, Alphabetical list of districts, and all 59 double-page colour lithograph maps as follows: 7 maps of the Home Counties (I-VII); 17 Special maps and plans of London (VIII-XXIV); one Index map; and 34 four-inch scale maps (sheets 1-34).

In a very good condition. ~ On first paste-down is the ink stamp "Hiram Walker & Sons. Ltd. / 27 Cockspur Street S.W.1." The address is then crossed out and changed in contemporary hand to "170/3 Piccadilly W.1" and the date "1926" is added by different hand. Hiram Walker started producing spirits in 1858, pioneering numerous distillation and manufacturing processes that are now industry standards. Harry Clifford Hatch (1884-1946), a Canadian businessman, acquired Hiram Walker & Sons in 1926. He merged it with Gooderham & Worts of Toronto to form Hiram Walker Gooderham & Worts Ltd., one of the largest whisky distillers in the world. The Scotland subsidiaries distributed spirits to pubs all over England. Almost all of the 4-inch scale maps in this copy were used to meticulously mark the location of every single London establishment that was on the distribution list of the distillery. Each enterprise is identified by unique number in a very neat hand in black or red ink; there are probably more than a thousand such entries. Names of some establishments are added in pencil by a different hand. Extremely rare document of the time, mapping London's pub sector and hotel and catering industry of the first half of the 20th Century.
