Description
The Package Holiday, 1968-1985 is a nostalgic archive of images capturing the vibrant atmosphere of British tourists abroad during the heyday of the package holiday.
Photographer Trevor Clark's remarkable collection of images reveals the joy and camp of a bygone era, where brightly coloured speedos and factor two suncream were everyday sights. From lounging by the pool with a cocktail and cigarette to the excitement of archery lessons for the kids, this book is a fascinating glimpse into a world of holidaymakers making the most of cheap flights, Mediterranean sun, and all-inclusive buffets.
With 144 pages of stunning photographs, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of British tourism and the golden age of package holidays.
