Watching the English by Kate Fox
How does THE NAKED APE behave when he's dressed? The quirks and habits of the English laid bare.
If you like this kind of anthropology (and I do) there is a wealth of it to enjoy in this bookHer observations are acute...fortunately she doesn't write like an anthropologist but like an English woman -with amusement, not solemnity, able to laugh at herself as well as us. * Daily Mail *
