Because he insists on living here in the Colonies, Lester Morris may be England's least-known treasure ... but this book will surely change all that ! Besides being fresh and wonderfully clever, this little gem of a read is also wickedly funny because Lester writes like he lives - with a watchful eye and a devilish grin ! Try as we may to ignore it, the thickest part of our American funny-bone had its roots in England ... a fact that becomes entertainingly obvious the more you read "Did You Knows?" of England by Lester Morris.
Lester Morris grew up near London and was a British tour guide for many years before moving to the United States. He is an entertainer, storyteller, speaker, Santa Claus, and author.
This is a literary tour of Englands historical trivia presented in a fun and facinating way. Although I read it through from the beginning, it also lends itself to random browsing for interesting tid bits. There are also some historical rundowns on the English monarchy at the back of the book. Lester Morris is a professional tour guide and it comes through in his writing. Well worth the read for anyone interested in England and its history.
