About the Book
Cold, damp, gloom, bad food, and a language that defied all understanding: That’s what greeted US servicepeople who landed in England in World War II. But then there were the friendly pubs, and the locals who thought all Americans were straight outta Hollywood.

Join historian Dr. Annette Laing (Non-Boring History), to find out how “Yanks” got along with “Limeys” (and each other) on a crowded little island in the middle of a world war, and the headaches their encounters gave the Brits and Americans in charge, all the way up to Eisenhower.

About the Speaker
Annette Laing (PhD) is not your usual historian: She quit her tenured university job in 2008 to write time-travel novels (Snipesville), and to present college lectures disguised as entertainment to audiences of all ages. Annette is author of Non-Boring History, the bestselling chatty Substack newsletter aimed at adults who don’t think they like history . . . and those who love it, too.
