Molecular Biology of the Cell: Final Report of the Sonderforschungsbereich "Molekularbiologi... Book

This book is, as stated in the title, a history of the United States that is intended to be funny.
A sample of the kind of humour included can be found here:

"The French and Indian War cost the Colonists sixteen million dollars, of which the English repaid only five million. The Americans lost thirty thousand men, none of whom were replaced."

"Florida was now ceded to the already cedy crown of England by Spain"

"Washington, however, though only an aidy kong of General Forbes, decided to take command"

(Speaking of Benjamin Franklin) "He was the first bald-headed man of any prominence in the history of America."

I must admit that I found the first half much funnier than the second half, maybe because the second half had so much about the Civil War.

I would have given the book three stars, but there were too many comments, apparently meant to be funny, but woefully not, about American Indians, that were dreadfully offensive.
