  In Crap Holidays , Dan Kieran highlights 50 of the most disastrous - and hilarious - holidays from hell...From leaky caravans in Wales, to crushingly disappointing luxury hotels in Barbados ...From dysentery in Goa, to bloody awful holiday companions who won't leave you alone ...In fact, from Butlins to Bali, here you'll find stories of crap holiday sex, crime, food, accommodation, and of course, the inevitable family fights! Focusing on the gap between the wonderful promise and the grim reality, Crap Holidays takes a step back in time to look at hellish holidays from the past, whilst also examining 21st-century holiday culture - including information on a variety of more serious subjects, such as...The number of 'holiday' deaths that occur each year...The number and type of complaints received by different operators each year...The profits made - and the prices paid for holiday hell holes...Written once again by the Idler's readers and contributors, Crap Holidays will be packed with hilarious holiday snaps and, of course, savage cartoons satirising the whole hellish business!
