The first in a series of highly illustrated books that take a nostalgic look at life in 20th-century Britain through amateur photographs, ephemera, and postcards, On Holiday visually explores where people stayed, what they wore, where they went, how they got there, and what they did. Using predominantly amateur photographs from family albums alongside postcards, publicity material, and a range of ephemera from the Edwardian era to the 1970s, this feast of nostalgia offers a delightfully evocative snapshot of holiday life in 20th-century Britain.
