I started this book with high hopes looking forward to hearing interesting tidbits about America from a British perspective. Perhaps that is what I got? However, I could not get past the tone of the book which was too superior and overarching. Perhaps the America that he presents is not the one in which I live? A personal gripe is that he bypassed my home state of Ohio entirely. This one goes into the category of ‘did-not-finish'. I looked at the pictures and read a bit of the text before realizing that there was nothing for me in this book.
