Synopsis

The British are not who you think they are...

In fact, they’re not even who they think they are!

Come on a hilarious tour of the most misunderstood people on Earth.

Throwing away all the usual, boring stereotypes, and unafraid of being critical where justified, best-selling author (and Brit) Adam Fletcher will explain:
- What cricket has to do with the Grim Reaper.
- When you shouldn’t say sorry.
- Which secret religion every Brit is a member of.
- The twenty most annoying phrases in the English language.
- The revolutionary hangover cure invented in Scotland.
- The Ten Commandments of British humour.

And much more.

Packed with warmth, humour, honesty, insight, and more than forty hilarious illustrations, Understanding the British is the definitive irreverent guide to a strange nation.

Bonus: includes a How British Are You? quiz that will reveal just how well you understand the British mentality.
