It’s
England--America’s staging ground for sorting out European wars, they speak the same language, watch the same TV, read the same books--it shouldn’t be much different than moving from New York to Arkansas.

Postcards From Across the Pond
|
“Postcards from Across the Pond” is a true delight! Laugh out loud funny regardless of which
side of the pond you call home, Mike Harling has a knack for finding both the humor and the
charm in everyday fare. Bill Bryson move over, there’s a new American expat in town with a
keen sense of humor.

Whether you’ve been in the UK for decades, or are just about to embark on your journey,
sit back and enjoy Mike Harling’s unique, entertaining descriptions of his life across the pond.
Toni Hargis - “Rules Britannia”
I savored the bubbling flavor of this Yankee's
reaction to Saxon country
in the form of perky postcard-style epistles.
Eileen Swift - former syndicated travel writer for Newsday
Michael Harling's essays about what it's like to be an American living in
England are not only fascinating for Anglophiles who've only visited
the "motherland" on vacation, but very, very funny, too. Joe Queenan...watch out!
Diana Burrell - Hail Britannia
A lovely, quixotic, affectionate attempt to bring together those
"two nations divided by a common language." A must for travellers in both directions.
Gordon Astley - BBC Southern Counties Radio
"This, in my opinion, is a very funny book indeed. I was literally laughing out loud
whilst reading this book; not only did I enjoy it, but I am now craving
more."
