The first Michelin Guide was published for the British Isles in 1911 and originally contained driving information to motorists. It ran for five years until it was suspended during World War I and resumed from 1922 until 1930 now titled 'Great Britain'. In 1974, a new guidebook was released in its modern form, solely a restaurant and hotel guide titled, 'Great Britain and Ireland.'
