Summary: In depth review of cultural and day to day diffences
Comment: I read this book before I made a trip to Great Britain and found it very useful. It covers things like general attitude of the people, and domestic habits. Also goes over differences in language, like when someone asks you what to time do you want to be knocked up, it means what time to you want to be woken up in the morning. I was only in Great Britain for a month with a college study abroad program and I only got a glimpse of life over there, so I didn't get a chance to experience everything that is covered in this book.

Summary: great for learning the cultural ins and outs of Great Britai
Comment: This book is especially good for those traveling on their own in the UK because it points out the cultural differences between the two countries and suggests some of the language differences that may be encountered. With humor it points out customs that may be hard to understand and perhaps too subtle to notice, yet will make a difference in interfacing with business acquaintences, wait persons, hotel staff, and others as well as understanding the tv programs and newspapers.
