Welcome to the 21st Century: More Absurdities from Our Time - Hardcover
Synopsis
Here is a second humorous look back at the follies, foibles and fads of the twentieth century. Canada's pre-eminent popular historian lampoons the monarchy, the movies, and everything in between. Berton even ventures a look beyond to the upcoming century, when in 2021, Chicago and New York launch the first 22-lane highways: designed for a speed limit of 100 mph, traffic is so congested the limit has to be readjusted--to 15 mph. Following the amazing success of "A Farewell to the Twentieth Century," Pierre Berton knows just what will tickle the funny bones of his fans.
