Description

George Mikes' guide to being a Brit is a comprehensive and entertaining exploration of British culture and customs. First published in 1946, this book was followed by "How to be Inimitable" and "How to be Decadent", all illustrated by the renowned cartoonist Nicolas Bentley.

Written from the perspective of an outsider who has become deeply familiar with British ways, Mikes' book offers practical advice on how to navigate everyday situations in Britain. With its unique blend of humor and insight, this volume is a must-have for anyone looking to better understand their adopted country.

Originally published together in one volume, "How to Be a Brit" makes it easier than ever for newcomers to Britain to find the information they need to fit in and enjoy life in the UK.
