The book witnesses the UK being the inventor, developer and major producer of touring caravans. Images  (many from the Authors own personal archive) shows how caravan interior\/exterior design has evolved and has been influenced by domestic trends through the decades.\r\n\r\n With nostalgic images the book brings to life this often forgotten yet important aspect of the modern touring caravan. Covering imported caravans as well as UK manufactured models shows just how continental tastes differ from UK buyers.   The touring caravan is a modern and sophisticated leisure vehicle that has evolved since the first commercial built Eccles brand caravan back in 1919.\r\n\r\n A then rich mans hobby, it became more affordable by the 1930's and this was made possible with more modern production techniques. The design of the caravan emerged from a basic box like profile influenced by the 1800's horse drawn gypsy caravan that became a fashionable form of holiday with the gentry. Dr Gordon Stables a retired Naval Officer influenced this idea with his specially built horse drawn caravan  The Wanderer  - now on show at the Broadway Caravan \u0026amp; Motorhome Club Site.\r\n\r\n Stables wrote of his adventures and caravanning in a sense had begun. The book contains many unpublished and rare images which also features cars from the period too. Andrew writes for Practical Motorhome, Practical Caravan and Park Home and Holiday Caravan Magazine amongst others and attends all major related shows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen possible we will add details of the items we are selling to help buyers know what is included in the item for sale.
