Description: "Tourism at any point in time is, in many ways, a mirror of economic and social change. The changes in British society in the decades from the 1950s to the 21st Century are reflected in the forms of tourism that the British have been able to aspire to and afford. British Tourism: The Remarkable Story of Growth identifies the most significant of these changes and places them in an historical context highlighting four distinctive eras." "Offering a comprehensive evaluation of post war developments in the British tourism industry, British Tourism: The Remarkable Story of Growth, acts as a single reference resource suitable for a wide ranging readership from schools teaching tourism through to university students on tourism courses and practitioners in the travel and tourism industries."--Jacket.
