Book Description
The United States has been re-stated. One impudent Brit and his cell-phone gremlin take on the people, institutions and events that have shaped the land of the free… using autocorrect suggestions as they go and uncovering some shocking truths from across the Pond. From Grotesque Washing* to the first Man on the Moose*, this fresh take on what makes the greatest country in the world what it is today will raise as many eyebrows as it will laughs. This is the follow-up to the original UK edition. * George Washington, *Man on the Moon
