We received the following email from Toni Hargis that members may find of interest:

I would like to tell you about my book, "Rules, Britannia; An Insider's Guide to Life in the United Kingdom", (St. Martin's Press, NY). It is written specifically for Americans visiting the UK and contains 22 chapters giving the facts about British life. Since moving to the US sixteen years ago (I am English) I have been asked constantly to give advice to Americans moving to Britain. In the book I aim to give the facts rather than my own opinions, in order to make the transatlantic adjustment somewhat less of a surprise The book is informative yet highly entertaining, and is an easy and fun read.

"Rules, Britannia" is receiving great reviews on both sides of the Atlantic. Please visit my web site to learn more about me and the book - www.rulesbritannia.com. It is available on Amazon's US and UK websites, as well as many retail outlets and other online book stores.

I hope you will agree that it would make a fine gift or suggestion for Americans friends visiting the UK.

Thank you,

Toni Hargis

In a subsequent email Toni informs us:

If you have any criticism (positive, of course), spot any omissions etc. let me know as I will hopefully be doing a paperback, where I can make corrections etc. My next pitch to my publisher is to do the same type of book but for Brits relocating over here. All and any material is most welcome!

Thanks,
Toni

PS> I have an English friend with a home in Park City. I will be sure and tell her about your group!
