  The inter-war period saw the annual holiday become part of the lives of large numbers of people. This book explores the facets of seaside holiday - where people went, and why; how they got there; where they stayed; what they did; and what they wore. It also examines the architecture of pleasure, in the form of cinemas, piers, lidos and pavilions.
