Ever wonder how much archeologists really know about the artifacts they dig up? What if they dug up our remains in the year 4022? Howard Carson discovers a buried motel with all the contents untouched. This could be the key to the burial rites of the ancient Yanks!
Here’s an absolutely hilarious book. Carson couldn’t be more wrong about any of his ideas about the things he finds, but he doesn’t know that. And then there’s Macaulay’s subtle humor that usually causes you to look back and go “What?!” You’ll be rolling on the floor by the time you finish reading this book!

I agree with both Jordan and Ruth, and I’ll add that this is a Must Read. (laughing) It’s so funny! It kind of makes you wonder whether we got Ancient Egypt straight or not. Hmmmm. All right, thinking caps on! What could the sphynx have been other then just a big statue. . . ?
