About The Author

Descending from a line that pioneered pirate-themed eateries and shell-shaded electric lamps, Travis grew up in Worthing on the Sussex coast. It is quite hard to grow up in a place where almost everyone else has gone to die.He is the author of two acclaimed books, The Bus We Loved and The Long-Player Goodbye. He lives in London.

Elborough is an English nostalgist in the mode of John Betjeman… as a cultural commentator [Elborough] is a terrific companion… Wish You Were Here is quirky, chatty, charming and optimistic – an ideal read for the English beach.

Other text

A fascinating look into how and why the English love to be beside the seaside.
