Don't Go Europe!

Rating:
Summary: Just don't go!
Review: A veritable emotional tour de force, Joycean in scope, Proustian in lyricism, and written in iambic pentameter to boot -- and, shockingly, the whole book forms one giant palendrome.

Rating:
Summary: A must-read for "Let's Go" survivors
Review: Anyone who has lived and died by "Let's Go: Europe" will love this book! As much fun as Europe is, Chris Harris hits all its little idiosyncracies and nuances (including those of the Ugly American Tourist) right on the mark. You'll laugh hard and remember all the fun you had over there. IF you haven't gone to Europe, well, let's just say this book is full of location jokes. You have to be there to really appreciate it.

Summary: Featuring the Really Really Big Countries
Review: Don't go to Europe. Never go there, under any circumstances. To know why, read this book. It explains in graphic detail the horror of the Uglius Americanus' visits to that ghastly place, Europe. It is hilarious. More than Hilarious. And the best thing; it's true.

Rating:
Summary: good parody both of Europe and of American expectations
Review: Harris deserves credit for an original topic and title. While a lot of travel authors might snipe at Europe, few would make it the title of the book. It definitely gets your attention.

Inside, the major nations of Europe each get a rundown (in both senses of the term). It's usually pretty funny, but what's funniest is that it could also be construed as a humourous look at the stereotype of the 'ugly American', who goes abroad and promptly finds fault with anything that isn't like his homeland.

It is a little expensive for what you get--it's really sort of thin--but it's amusing nonetheless. Would make a good gift, especially as a gag gift at Christmas parties for known Europhiles.

Summary: Just don't go!
Review: I have read this book over and over again, it's the most funny book that I have laid my eyes upon. Anyone from Europe should read this book because it'll make you laugh more than you ever have before. Anyone from the USA should read this book because it'll make you laugh more than you ever have before...

Yes, it's suitable for everyone! Even Canadians.

Summary: unbelievable!
Review: This book had me literally crying! It was so incredibly funny! I'm planning on buying it for all of my friends so that they can also Not Go to Europe!

Rating:
Summary: Ha ha ha ha this is the best travel book
Review: This book is by far the funniest book I have ever read. I don't think you have to go to Europe to truly appreciate it--I hadn't when I first read it. When I did go, though, it became all the more amusing because it's pretty darned accurate in some places!

Highly, highly recommended.
