Mason and Dixon

[Jamie Collinson]

It's my favourite too actually, and I thought that was a rare feeling about the book, so this is good to hear. Partly as a Brit it's really interesting to hear P's take on Yorkshire vs London and two British men. That's a very small part of it though, and ultimately it his taking on the foundations of America itself that's so interesting and ambitious.
