The latest in the popular Teach Yourself series of books by publishers Hodder Education is Teach Yourself Caravanning. Produced in association with The Caravan Club, the 180-page illustrated book is a useful guide, not just for the complete novice but as a handy reference for the more seasoned caravanner. With the popularity of caravanning at an all-time high, and Caravan Club membership at record levels, there are even more first-timers looking for guidance with getting started.
The author is well-known caravanning journalist, Rob McCabe, a regular contributor to The Caravan Club’s own Magazine. Rob explains in a clear and entertaining way how to reach the ultimate goal of a ‘relaxed holiday’ by
• finding out about the different caravan layouts
• getting tips on towing safely
• learning about touring and setting up your pitch.
In the Foreword to the guide, former Foreign Secretary the Rt Hon Margaret Beckett, says that she is pleased to see that caravanning today remains as popular as when she started out. “It best suits those who enjoy the freedom of being able to take to the open road and end up in any number of interesting and beautiful places,” she goes on to say.
Teach Yourself Caravanning is available from the online shop on The Caravan Club website at http://www.caravanclub.co.uk/shop for £6.99 (exc p&p), as well as from all usual bookshops and retailers (RRP £8.99).
