内容説明

This stunning photography book captures the spirit of the now almost lost tradition of the English seaside holiday. The photographs - taken from English Heritage's unique collection held in the National Monuments Record - illustrate how we used to take our summer holidays before cheap flights and package deals made foreign holidays affordable to all, leading to the decline of the English seaside resort. From Victorian bathers to 1950s beach huts, from the 19th-century fishermen to long destroyed landmarks such as New Brighton's Tower (higher than its more famous rival at Blackpool) and from Punch & Judy shows to donkey rides along the beach, this book reminds us how we have changed as a nation and, in some cases, what we have lost forever.
