A ROUGH GUIDE TO ROUGH GUIDES

Published in 1982, the first Rough Guide to Greece was a student scheme thatbecame a publishing phenomenon. Mark Ellingham, a recent graduate in English fromBristol University, had been travelling in Greece the previous summer and couldntfind the right guidebook. With a small group of friends he wrote his own guide,combining a highly contemporary, journalistic style with a thoroughly practicalapproach to travellers needs.

The immediate success of the book spawned a series that rapidly covered dozens ofdestinations. And, in addition to impecunious backpackers, Rough Guides soonacquired a much broader readership that relished the guides wit and inquisitivenessas much as their enthusiastic, critical approach and value-for-money ethos.

These days, Rough Guides include recommendations from budget to luxury and covermore than 120 destinations around the globe, as well as producing an ever-growingrange of ebooks.
