How do you square ‘Take back control’ with the freedom of holidays? Andrews answers this question and raises others in this innovative collection. The contributors explore an imaginative range of neglected and unexpected dimensions of Brexit: its spiritual dimensions, its connections with hospitality, the economies of British tourist destinations, as well as its effect on tourist images, and what exactly the role of the royal family is in all this.
