Description
New paperback edition of the history of Britain's trailer caravan industry and its incredibly diverse products in the formative years of this extremely popular hobby.
Synopsis
A detailed account of how the British caravan industry developed in its first 30 years and - from Alcock to Winchester - of the caravans it produced. The designs in this period ran the full gamut from weird to wonderful, but all contributed to the caravan's evolution. This book provides a nostalgic trip to the past for caravan enthusiasts; it also serves as a record of the industry's fledgling years and as a useful work of reference.
