England, Their England by A.G. Macdonell

5.0

This book is simply wonderful. If you like P.G. Wodehouse, Evelyn Waugh, George MacDonald Fraser, you will like A.G. Macdonnell. A Scotsman's view of England in the interwar years, England, Their England is full of hilarious observations and satirical takes on just about every type of personality in society. Admittedly, as an American, I was not able fully to appreciate the humor of the cricket match, the book's most famous scene, because I don't understand the game. The only negatives are that the book isn't longer or it's author more prolific.
