Despre carte

Explore this state-by-state compendium of weird laws, quirks, one-offs, and unusual records only to be found in the wonderfully wacky US of A. Only in America explores the strangest claims to fame and the most unusual place names every state has to offer. Visit the city of Dinosaur, drop by the Pizza Museum, find out where it is illegal to feed a pig without a permit, and check out the world's only "carhenge" (that's right, Stonehenge reconstructed using cars). Among many other marvels, discover: The longest gum wrapper chain (over 20 miles!)

Which state has the highest ratio of cows to humans in the country.

The origin of shoo-fly pie, a molasses cake baked in a pie crust.
