Overview

"What struck me most about the United States when I first came was sex and money," said a Japanese man, referring to the images he saw around him on advertisements. But try asking an American if he's gay or how much he or she earns, and you will lose more friends than you will make. Born in Boston and married into a Jewish Hungarian family. Esther Wanning has written for The New York Times and The San Francisco Chronicle. Equally comfortable in the American town or city, in the East or West Coast, Esther will provide you with a fun-filled crash course on the cultural do's and don'ts in the Land of Freedom. Culture Shock! USA navigates the reader through topics as diverse as language, food and entertainment, social customs, festivals, and relationships. It provides helpful business tips and explanations of daily sights and scenes that might confuse the first-time visitor. Culture Shock! is a bestselling series of cultural and etiquette guides that covers countless destinations all around the world.
