Description

Explore the deep connection between the British coast and public well-being in this detailed historical study. Published by Routledge, The Seaside, Health and the Environment in England and Wales since 1800 examines how the coast became a vital location for rest, relaxation, and recuperation for many people over the last two centuries. This book tracks the evolution of the seaside from an early health resort focused on clean, ozone-charged air and sea-water bathing to a more pleasure-oriented destination. It follows the journey of those traveling from inland urban environments to the coast in search of a wholesome and invigorating break. As the nineteenth century transitioned into the twentieth, the role of the seaside continued to change, making this a significant read for anyone interested in the social and economic history of Great Britain and Wales.
