America (The Book)

America (The Book): A Citizen's Guide to Democracy Inaction  By the Daily Show with Jon Stewart
2004
Weight: 2.4 lbs
Method of Disposal: Leaving Somewhere


This book was kinda fun, right?  It looks just like the old middle school and high school text books we were assigned every year and then had to pay for if we lost.  Complete with the last chapter about everywhere else in the world. The main component being The Birth of the Nation--America after we killed most of the Americans, a bit about Europe, and then cram everything about the last 50 years and other countries into a section the teachers never even got around to teaching anyway.

AND it is full of Stewart's important but amusing criticism.
