This is one of a series of guides designed to tell the truth about other nations, using sweeping generalizations and observations as a base, detailing what to expect and how to cope with it. The guides try to explain why things are done the way they are and they try to allay the feelings of trepidation with which the xenophobe approaches new territory. This particular book looks at the French.

Entertaining, if a bit outdated. Rings true on a lot of things, after spending some time in France. Not as good as the Norwegian book of the same series.
