"In this spectacular work there are published, for the first time in book form, the giant Polaroid photographs by the American photographer Neal Slavin who has spent years travelling around the United Kingdom with the prodigious Polaroid camera which produces 24" x 20" prints of museum quality. He has turned his acute, sometimes wryly sardonic, sometimes gently humorous, sometimes devoutly admiring, eyes and lens on the various groups of people who make Britain what it is. From Channel swimmers to debutantes, from ducal families to the crew of the Cromer Life Boat, Slavin has brilliantly captured all sorts and conditions of people and has created a series of images of Britain showing its citizens as they really are and as they have never been seen before."
