A Brick Tour of America - Funny look at America by Jeff Friesen :-)

Words are a great way to introduce you into 50 states of America but sometimes ... the picture says it all ... :-)
Don't know this book ? Released in 2014 by Jeff Friesen, a Canadian photographer who spent enough time in United States to be able to capture each American state in one picture in a very entertainment way.

The book has 95 pages and is full of pictures. At the beginning of the book there is a 5 page introduction which starts as "Making sense of a big country is like taming a horse-size turkey. There are a few ways how to do it, but how do you begin such an epic task ?". And I must say that Jeff dealt with this challenge very well. :-)

I'm glad to have this book in my bookshelf ! I would love to know whether Americans agree with Jeff's view on each of 50 states of America. :-) For me, non-American, this book brings in a very funny way something to remember about each of the 50 states. Even though I know that sometimes it is an exaggeration, of course.
There are some of my favourite pictures.
