Synopsis
Full of humor and insight, this book offers a look at the United States from the perspective of traveling foreigners and Americans traveling outside their corner of the country. The cities, resorts, sights, customs, and people are observed by humorists such as Mark Twain, James Thurber, Robert Benchley, Art Buchwald, and Russell Baker; travel writers such as Jonathan Raban, Ludwig Bemelmans, Alistair Cooke, Charles Kuralt, and Margaret Powell; literary figures such as Rudyard Kipling, E. M. Forster, Mary McCarthy, William Golding, and Anthony Trollope; and cartoonists from The New Yorker and Punch. In addition, readers can eavesdrop on what writers from such countries as Canada, Britain, France, Germany, the Soviet Union, and Israel write about the U.S. when they get home.
