A funny and affectionate commentary on life in America by an Englishman who became a "Resident Alien". Writer and college teacher David Bouchier came to America in 1986, and soon afterwards began to broadcast his observations in a weekly essay on National Public Radio Station WSHU. In 1993 he started a regular humor column, called "Out of Order", in the Sunday New York Times. The Accidental Immigrant brings together more than a hundred and fifty of these short commentaries on every subject from Thanksgiving ("Wild Turkey") to hunting ("The Right to Arm Bears").
