Weymouth is among the most popular holiday destinations in the UK, with an excellent sunshine record, safe sandy beaches and the stunning backdrop of the World Heritage Jurassic Coast. But Weymouth and its neighbour Portland are packed full of historic sights and characterful corners that make it far more than a kiss-me-quick resort. Weymouth's noble seafront and picturesque harbour, for example, give the town a unique atmosphere, while Portland is renowned for the extraordinary Chesil Beach. Acclaimed Dorset photographer Roger Holman has caught the colour, humour, stateliness and quirkiness of the town and its hinterland to present a collection of 60 evocative images that truly capture the spirit of Weymouth and Portland.
Postcard size picture book with colour photos on every page. A great favourite with visitors to the area.
