Reseña del libro "Pop Round for a Laugh: An American's Field Guide to British Words, Ways and Everyday Life (en Inglés)"

What happens when an American spends more than two decades learning the words, habits and wonderfully unexpected customs of everyday Britain? You get Pop Round for a Laugh: a warm, funny and highly browsable field guide to British English and British life. Across 679 bite-sized observations, Col. Scott L. Pileckas explores the expressions, objects, routines and cultural quirks that can delight, confuse and occasionally bewilder visitors from across the Atlantic. Discover why a vest is not always a vest, why "popping round" rarely involves popping, and how familiar words can mean something entirely different on the other side of the pond. Written with affection rather than instruction, this is a book to dip into, share aloud and keep beside the sofa. It is ideal for Anglophiles, Americans living in Britain, British readers curious about how their world appears to an outsider, travellers, language lovers and anyone who enjoys observational humour. Scott has lived in the United Kingdom for more than twenty years and has served since 2025 as Ambassador for Charity and Goodwill for the Great State of New Jersey to the United Kingdom. Ten per cent of his royalties from this series is pledged to church and charitable work supporting children and families. Learn more at www.njambassador.org.
