Beschreibung
America's only self-declared emperor, the "e;old soldier"e; who wouldn't die, the greatest carpetbagger - these are just a few of the fanciful real-life characters profiled in this inexhaustible trivia book. The author covers a happily wide range of subjects, from "e;the greatest slot machine cheat"e; who defied odds of 230,000 to 1, to the comic confusion of "e;US"e; with "e;Uncle Sam,"e; to the "e;American town names to give you the creepy crawlies"e; like Black Gnat, Kentucky. Meticulously fact-checked, this book brings the minutiae of a culture and country into sharp focus. The perfect road-trip companion, Everything You Didn't Need to Know About the USA is crammed with weird and wacky facts about every state in the union.
