"Pilgrimages to the Spas in Pursuit of Health and Recreation" by James Johnson was the result of several autumnal excursions in the line of the German Spas. The idea of spas and their effect on health has been part of cultures around the world for centuries. This book attempted to give some credence to the idea or disprove it once and for all. As a guide for travelers, this book also helped people decide which spas were more likely to be beneficial compared to others.

Excerpt from Pilgrimages to the Spas in Pursuit of Health and Recreation; With an Inquiry Into the Comparative Merits of Different Mineral Waters: The Maladies to Which They Are Applicable, and Those in Which They Are Injurious The typography of this volume will prove that, although I must plead guilty to the charge of "making a book," it has not been constructed on the approved principles of "Book Making." By certain mechanical processes well known "in the trade, ' this slender tome might have been easily expanded into two or even three goodly, or at least costly octavos, without the expenditure of a single additional line, word, or thought. But, bearing in mind the old Greek maxim that "a great book is a great evil," I was determined that, should my lucubrations come under this head at all, the evil as well as the book should be on a small scale. Spa-going invalids have evils enough, God knows, to carry on their shoulders, without the addition of a "Mega Biblion' in their wallets. There is one defect in this work, however, which common honesty compells me to point out to the intending purchaser, before he parts with his money. If the travelling invalid expects to find here a catalogue of the post-houses, the signs of the inns, the prices of the wines, the fares of the table-d'hotes, the pretensions of the cuisine, &c. &c. &c., except upon very rare occasions, he will be woefullg disappointed. All this species of information, and a great deal more, will be found in that excellent emporium of peripatetic lore - "Murray's Handbook." But even this useful feature in the "red-book," is not without its alloy. The character of caravanseras is perpetually changing, as well as that of their landlords; and when one of these gets a good name in a guide book, the afflux of travellers to that point too often causes the master to become proud, the servants lazy, the fare bad, and the bill exorbitant. Many a bitter anathema have I heard launched against the "Handbooks, &C." for leading tourists and invalids to be starved and fleeced at the "Red Lion," when they might have fared sumptuously and cheaply at the "Black Swan." Still, the Handbook is equally invaluable and indispensable to the continental traveller; and, as far as the Spas are concerned, Dr. Granville's work is full of information on this subject. The profession and the public, indeed, are deeply indebted to Dr. Granville and Mr. Edwin Lee for opening out wider and clearer views of the continental mineral waters; but the subject itself, so far from being exhausted, is only in its infancy of investigation. Whether we regard the constituent elements of the waters themselves, their physiological operation, or their remedial efficacy, there is ample room for many future inquirers. I have now only to return my sincere thanks to the various German and other physicians on the continent, from whom I received oral, written, or published information, and to say that I shall feel myself honoured by any future communications from tie same sources, on the subject of the Spas.

*FOYLES NON-FICTION BOOK OF THE MONTH* 'I really can't recommend this enough - especially if you are going on holiday' Tom Holland 'Delightful ... Lucy Lethbridge has written a glorious romp of a book' Kathryn Hughes, The Mail on Sunday 'It is the paramount wish of every English heart, ever addicted to vagabondizing, to hasten to the Continent...' In 1815 the Battle of Waterloo brought to an end the Napoleonic Wars and the European continent opened up once again to British tourists. The nineteenth century was to be an age driven by steam technology, mass-industrialisation and movement, and, in the footsteps of the Grand Tourists a hundred years earlier, the British middle-classes flocked to Europe to see the sights. In Tourists, the voices of these travellers – puzzled, shocked, delighted and amazed – are brought vividly to life. From the discomfort of the stagecoach to the 'self-contained pleasure palace' of the beach resort, Lucy Lethbridge brilliantly examines two centuries of tourists' experience. Among a range of disparate characters, we meet the commercial titans of Victorian tourism, Albert Smith, Henry Gaze and Thomas Cook, as well as their successor, Vladimir Raitz, the creator of the modern beach holiday. The growth of popular tourism introduced new markets in guidebooks, souvenirs, cuisine and health cures. It smoothed over class differences but also exacerbated them. It destroyed traditional cultures while at the same time preserving them. From portable cameras to postcards and suntans, Tourists explores how tourism has reflected changing attitudes to modernity and how, from the grand hotel to the campsite, the foreign holiday exposes deep fears, hopes and even longings for home.
