Looking in detail at the classic vehicles of the 1950's, 60's and 70's, when motor camping holidays were at their most popular, it features vans ranging from relatively simple fitted-out panel vans right up to some remarkably sophisticated, fully coach-built campers. Every major converter and conversion is described in details with numerous color and black & white photographs. |
