O knihe
Humorous, awe-inspiring, and even inspirational-an illustrated celebration of everyday Americans' outrageous competitive fire From marathon dancing, to food eating contests, to beauty pageants of every variety, to pole sitting, rotten sneaker contests, animal calling contests, phone-booth stuffing, Americans love competing to see who can do anything better than anyone else. We Have a Winner! is the first book to offer a visually stunning tour through American history, from coast to coast, through our often whacky, uniquely themed contests: On Your Marks! (races); There She Is (beauty pageants); No Thanks, I'm Stuffed (food-eating contests); and much more! Covering more than a century's worth of competition, and packed with 150 photos and fascinating sidebars, this book shows how the American competitive spirit-as whacky as it sometimes is-mirrors our culture's trends, innovations, and news.
