"A brilliantly funny exploration of
the Sunshine State from the man who knows it best: Pulitzer Prize winner and
New York Times -bestselling author Dave Barry. We never know what will happen
next in Florida. We know only that, any minute now, something will. Every few
months, Dave Barry gets a call from some media person wanting to know,
"What the hell is wrong with Florida?" Somehow, the state's acquired
an image as a subtropical festival of stupid, and as a loyal Floridian, Dave
begs to differ. Sure, there was the 2000 election. And people seem to take
their pants off for no good reason. And it has flying insects the size of
LeBron James. But it is a great state, and Dave is going to tell you why. Join
him as he celebrates Florida from Key West at the bottom to whatever it is
that's at the top, from the Sunshine State's earliest history to the fun-fair
of weirdness that it is today. It's the most hilarious book yet from "the
funniest damn writer in the whole country" (Carl Hiaasen, and he should
know). By the end, you'll have to admit that whatever else you might think about
Florida--you can never say it's boring." I always think that
Barry's books are entertaining and this one was pretty funny. This one
actually made me laugh out loud a few times. Fans of Barry's other books
or people who like humor will enjoy this.
