However it is in no way meant to be a nonfiction work (though some reviews have erroneously labeled it as such). No, it is merely meant as a MAD Magazine-style parody of American history and folktales much like The Stinky Cheese Man was a parody of fairy tales.<br /> <br />Keep up the good work. I'll return to your site often I'm sure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
