The English Seaside by Peter Williams
There is something about the seaside that brings out the beating heart of John Bull in the English: doggedly erecting our wind-breaks to capture every vestige of a watery sun; For too long the English seaside has suffered from bad press, accused of being tatty, cold grey and windswept.
It tells the story almost entirely in photographs after a foreword, and captures well the atmosphere of seaside towns, whether sedate or raucous, their views, amenities and curious quirks
