Publisher's Synopsis

Not sure why everyone keeps talking about the weather?
Can't tell your Earl Grey from your English breakfast?
Feeling a wobble in your stiff upper lip?

It sounds like you need a crash course in How to be British. This handy pocket guide brings together 130 classic cartoons covering all the crucial elements of life on our sceptred isle: from queuing under absolutely any circumstances, to avoiding eye contact on the bus, to tutting and saying 'Honestly' when it starts raining.

Whether you're a born-and-bred Brit or the most transient of tourists, How to be British is your one-stop remedy to Brexit blues. At least it's better than chatting about the weather again.
