{"product_id":"9781805221555","title":"To the Sea by Train","description":"\u003cp\u003eA staple of modern British life, the seaside getaway was intertwined with the train, in whose compartments holidaymakers were shunted from smog-choked cities to sandy coves. With his signature wit and anecdotal style, Andrew Martin captures an era defined by its railways: from the development of Brighton and Scarborough into pleasure resorts, and the introduction of bank holidays and two-day weekends, to the advent of cheap flights and the British coast's subsequent decline. Humorous and evocative, 'To the Sea by Train' takes a charming tour through Britain's most beloved pastime.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Profile Books","offers":[{"title":"Andrew \/ Martin","offer_id":57314503328118,"sku":"9781805221555","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1208\/4146\/files\/9781805221555.jpg?v=1771323652","url":"https:\/\/chepstowbooks.co.uk\/products\/9781805221555","provider":"Chepstow Books \u0026 Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
