Description
England's coastline is a diverse and striking landscape, featuring cliffs, coves, pebbled shores, sandy beaches, salt marshes, and estuaries that cut deep into the land. Over time, these coastal edges have given rise to some of England's most famous holiday resorts.
In this book, acclaimed writer Madeleine Bunting embarks on a journey around England's seaside towns, exploring their enduring appeal and what has happened to them over time. From Scarborough to Blackpool, she delves into the history, landscapes, and contemporary issues affecting these resorts, talking to residents and staying in hotels, caravans, and holiday camps.
With a focus on forty of England's most notable seaside resorts, Bunting sheds light on the changing nature of these places and what they mean to those who live and visit them. This is a thought-provoking exploration of a beloved part of British culture.
