The Touring Caravan

From the original horse-drawn caravan to the sophisticated and well-appointed luxury leisure vehicle we know today, this book follows the dynamic evolution of the touring caravan from the 1900s to the present day. Using a selection of images from his archive library, expert Andrew Jenkinson reveals how technical advances as well as interior design revolutionised the touring caravan in the United Kingdom, and how the culture of `motorhoming` was transformed from a “cheap holiday” to a lifestyle choice. Covering well-known caravan brands such as Eccles, Sprite, Swift and Fleetwood, this lively and informative book will appeal to motorhome enthusiasts and social historians alike, and rekindle happy memories for anyone who has holidayed in a touring caravan.
