I have enjoyed all the Provincial Lady books. In this one, it was fun to see a Brit's impression of 1930's America during her visits to Boston, New York and Niagara Falls.
A funny take on America in the 1930s, as experienced by a self-deprecating Englishwoman. It’s very odd to read this light piece of humor, in which new dresses and huge cars figure prominently, and realize it was written during the Depression. The Englishwoman, by the way, loves Chicago the best.
