Richard Ford (1796–1858) was an English writer known for his travel books on Spain. ==Life== Richard Ford was born in 1796. He was the eldest son of Benjamin Booth's daughter and heiress Marianne, who married Sir Richard Ford, an MP in 1789 and for many years chief police magistrate of London. Ford graduated from Trinity College, Oxford in 1817, and was afterward called to the bar, but never practiced. He spent four years traveling in Spain and in 1845 published his delightful ''Handbook for Travellers in Spain'', in two volumes. A second edition (1847) was in one volume, and the material left out was published in ''Gatherings from Spain'' (1846). Ford also contributed important papers on Spanish art to the ''Quarterly Review'' and other periodicals.〔Richard Ford DNB〕 He wrote letterpress for several art works, notably the ''Tauromachia'' (1852) of Lake Price. In 1855 Richard Ford also wrote "Andalucia, Ronda and Granada, Murcia, Valencia, and Catalonia; the portions best suited for the invalid".
