From the Introduction

This volume is both for tourists and for those who do not leave their own homes far from Martin Luther’s German homeland. It enables readers who will never see Luther’s native turf to imagine more precisely how his life unfolded in the surroundings in which God called him to serve His Church. It also provides a most helpful preparation for those who want to travel to the “Lutherlands” and see the sites themselves. It is the tourist’s vademecum, to be thumbed through while one walks through the streets and reviewed evenings after or before following in the reformer’s footsteps.
