Title: Some times in America
Description: "Brimming with gossip and humor, with minor tempests and huge embarrassments, this charming memoir of a modest Englishman's encounters with stateside culture in the fast lanes of Washington, D.C. and New York City wittily casts contemporary America in a revelatory, fresh, amusing light.".

"While Chancellor's experiences with power and peril among the politically and socially elite in the American capital have provided him with an abundance of lively anecdotes, they did not prepare him for life at the New Yorker, where at the unanticipated bidding of Tina Brown he assumed the monocle of the magazine's famous top-halted mascot, Eustance Tilly, and edited "The Talk of the Town" - not always to flattering consequences.

Under no other circumstances, however, could he have so intimately witnessed, or shared, the often exciting and frequently astonishing drama of Tina Brown's high-profile command at one of America's most august institutions."--BOOK JACKET.
