Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and a unique and unusual beauty is in the eye of celebrated photographer Iain McKell, whose work spanning four decades of British cultural life is represented in this quirky and arresting volume.

Since the late 1970s, Iain McKell has been photographing every corner of British society—from supermodels to shopkeepers, Mods to Rockers, gypsies to the gentry, from cosy bed and breakfasts, kiss-me-quick hats, and saucy seaside postcards to squats, urban wastelands, and rural raves. McKell’s camera has captured Britain’s diverse people in all their eccentric and theatrical glory.

His latest book Beautiful Britain spans 35 years of work on the land that shaped him. Comprising of friends, family, various sub-societies, sub-culture tribes and individuals.
