This is the first in a new series of highly illustrated books that take a nostalgic look at life in the 20th-century, "On Holiday" explores where we stayed, what we wore, where we went, how we got there and what we did while on holiday in days gone by. Accompanied by text written by best-selling "Antiques Roadshow" expert Paul Atterbury and using predominantly amateur photographs from family albums alongside postcards, publicity material and a range of ephemera from the Edwardian era to the 1970s, "On Holiday" offers a delightfully evocative snapshot of holiday life in 20th-century Britain.
We never snacked like this and we never binged like this. We never had so many superfoods, or so many chips. We were never quite so confused about food, and what it actually is.
A breath-taking family story that will change the way you think of India
