Excellent! February 12, 2005 15 out of 16 found this review helpful
Very funny, and surprisingly accurate portrayal of the English and their behaviour. Covering aspects such as our love of the 'nice cup of tea' through to our insistence on always being 'sorry'. Well worth a read.
An amusing look at the English way of life May 18, 1999 22 out of 24 found this review helpful
This book, which is part of a whole series of Xenophobes' guides is an enjoyable - if, as is to be expected - it's rather generalised.The book is amusing, and surprisingly spot-on. Covering areas such as class, making tea, sport, distrust of foreigners, etc this book explains the English very well. Anyone who wants to understand the English better would do very well to read this.
