Description

This time Dave Barry's subject is history, the way it's never been told before. Every single momentous event and crucial moment is covered, including the Birthing Contractions of a Nation; Kicking Some British Butt; The Fifties: Peace, Prosperity, Brain Death; right up through the scintillating Reagan-Bush years.

If you love to laugh, and you love your country, this is the book you've been waiting for since 1776. Or at least since Super Bowl III.

Endorsements

"Barry turns his formidable wit to the subject of American history, with a result reminiscent of the Reduced Shakespeare Company: The better you know the original, the funnier it gets." — Los Angeles Times
