The Rough Guides travel titles cover more than 200 destinations that began with the 1982 Rough Guide to Greece, a book conceived by Mark Ellingham and aimed at low-budget backpackers written in its trademark ‘tell it like it is’ ethos. From here the company went from strength to strength with Mark Ellingham and co-founder Martin Dunford and Andrew Lockett under the aegis of Penguin before their merger with Random House. Penguin became responsible for sales and distribution in 1992, acquiring a majority stake in 1996 and buying Rough Guides outright in 2002. The brand was then acquired by René Frey under Apa Publications in November 2017. (English, Unclassified)

Please do not combine multiple editions of of the same destination. Each edition is a separate work, with different content, often by different authors, and with different MDS classifications. (English, Technical/disambiguation notice)
