Critics Review
“Moore’s patented combination of humor and travelogue proves thoroughly engaging.” – Booklist starred review of Gironimo!
An easy and enjoyable read, it’s as much about the roadtrip in a vintage car as it is observations on the current political climate in America * Classic Ford *Moore… [is] very good at soaking up the strangeness of America and relating it to readers with an easy-going observational humour that only threatens to desert him when he contemplates the excesses of the current administration – Alistair Mabbott * The Herald *Hilarious and scary often in equal measure – Nat Barnes * Daily Express *This is The Wizard of Oz in reverse – an attempt to uncover the source of what went wrong in America… What lingers is the stories of communities brimming with people who worked like dogs to learn a trade in a country they believed would reward them – Jane Graham * Big Issue *Alarmingly full of incident, very funny – even mildly transformative – Jane Shilling * Daily Mail *
