Summary:If you have ever popped into Pussy (France), driven through Puke (Albania), berthed in Shag Harbour (Canada) or reached Climax (USA), "Rude World" is for you...From publishers of hit titles "Rude Britain" and "Crap Towns", this book reveals the 100 rudest place names in the world. The attractive photographs prove that these places are totally genuine, showing their varied, and often scenic, locations. Explanations are provided for each name, uncovering their fascinating origins. This delightful book is laugh-out-loud funny, though the authors are keen to stress that it is all perfectly innocent. Prepare yourself for the rudest world tour ever!
Biography:Rob Bailey spent his formative years in the village of Cumnor, Oxfordshire, where the family home rested peacefully upon the hill known as Tumbledown Dick. Ed Hurst, in common with Isaac Newton, was born in the Lincolnshire town of Grantham. His blend of pompous and puerile verbosity has helped him to establish himself as a management consultant.
