The development of the caravan is a fascinating story, and a vital part of our motoring heritage. In this book, Jon Pressnell traces the evolution of the touring caravan from its earliest horse-drawn days through to the lightweight aerodynamically styled 'designer' caravans of today. It is an absorbing tale of a cottage industry which expanded rapidly in the motoring revolution of the 1930s, as the motor car extended the horizons of the British public; a story of how the caravan evolved from a half-timbered 'cottage on wheels' to the mass-produced streamlined versatile trailer which we take for granted today. This Album chronicles the process and brings alive, with the help of a selection of period photographs, the appeal of classic caravans.
