America, I like you
Usually described as an autobiography, the lack of a clear time line makes this more like 'Reminiscences'. It is an entertaining and sometimes informative collection of anecdotes, quotes and history.

Pre-dating the UK 'version' Over Seventy by a year, they have about half in common. But they also have different structures, order and quite a few different anecdotes, so are best thought of as a separate books. So which do you read? They were written for different audiences and there is the answer. If you are American, this is the one for you, if British, then Over Seventy. If neither, take your pick. Committed fans will, of course, want both. Cheap copies are readily available.
