 | | The Lincolnshire coast has been part of the British seaside experience since the railways opened up the area to holidaymakers in the late nineteenth century. |
 | | Coastal resorts that in the eighteenth century were only for the gentry were transformed into towns that catered for mass tourism, enjoying their heyday in the 1920s and 1930s. |
 | | Focusing not only on resorts such as Skegness, Mablethorpe and Cleethorpes, as well as all the smaller holiday spots, he also describes the never-ending struggle with the sea, the role of smugglers and wreckers, transport in the area, shanty towns of the 1920s, Billy Butlin’s legacy, social and economic development, and much more. |
