Andrew’s book is a tribute to a great and successful caravan and motorhome manufacturing brand.
Eccles was the pioneer of the caravan and motorhome of today. This book describes how the company became a major force and the biggest producer of caravans in the world during the 1930s.

Award-winning leisure park puts customers and community first as it celebrates 35th anniversary
A premier Yorkshire leisure park is celebrating its 35th anniversary by pioneering the way forward in engaging with its customers and local community.
It is now run by Graham’s son, Guy Sparkes, his wife Karen and their extended family, who have grown the team from 35 employees five years ago to more than 70 today.
A Pembrokeshire family which swapped farming for a flourishing future in the leisure industry is this spring celebrating 20 years of success.
Celtic Holiday Parks, which owns three multi-award winning parks in the county, has become one of Wales's leading tourism providers.
But according to Huw Pendleton, who owns the business with his parents Vic and Ann, Celtic's anniversary year will be marked not just by a series of fun events.
It was in 1999 that the Pendletons sold the family's farm in Rhuallt, North Wales, and bought Croft Country Park in Narberth, Pembrokeshire.
Bosses at Craigtoun Meadows Holiday Park in St Andrews, Fife, have stepped in to make the playful wishes of two young girls come true.
Ten-year-olds Drew and Chloe met a few years ago at the park where their respective parents both own holiday caravans – and became the best of friends.
But as time went on, they began to feel that they were outgrowing the park's play areas which were tilted more at the needs of younger guests.
So last year, Drew and Chloe penned a letter to the family owners of Craigtoun Meadows with a plea for some extra play equipment designed for their age-group.
Specifically, they said, they were crossing their fingers for a trampoline and a basket-swing.
There were celebrations this month for a Canterbury couple and their three children after they were named as the winners of a brand new luxury holiday home.
Sam and Olly Bottomley beat hundreds of other entries in a national draw to win the keys to a fully equipped leisure home at Winchelsea Sands Holiday Park in East Sussex.
The draw was organised by park owners Park Holidays UK, and the family was able to choose from three of the group's 30 top-rated parks as the location for their prize.
They opted for Winchelsea Sands, partly because of the happy memories Sam treasured of carefree times spent on the park when she was a little girl.
