The British may not have invented the holiday as such, but they were largely responsible for the way many other nations spend their leisure time today. Seaside resorts, package tours, holiday camps...Britain gave these gems to the world, largely so we could later go and enjoy them in a warmer climate.In a series of nostalgic snapshots, this book records the way we spent our time off last century, a formative period in history when our holiday dreams evolved from a weekend in Blackpool to a fortnight on the Costa Brava.
