Steyn is a Canadian writer living in the US and has a regular newspaper column as well as a monthly column in National Review. His humor is ascerbic, but does not detract from the very serious posits he makes.

Probably the best description of the book is the back cover blurb by John O'Sullivan, editor at large for National Review:
If you like PJ O'Rourke, you'll love Steyn.
If he is as humorous as PJ then worth a read whatever your political standpoint.
