Beauty tips from Moose Jaw

I have a Canadian friend who is very desperate for me to like Will Ferguson, this is the third book of his that he's lent me. The first one irritated me quickly and I forgot about it and the second. This one is a set of travel essays from different provinces of Canada. They are sorted from west to east, and are almost-deliberately chronologically out of order.

However they're a funny and occasionally touching, always caustic, sometimes fondly (sometimes not) look at different cultures and micro-cultures in Canada, from the point of view of someone who isn't actually from Toronto but may as well be "stock white North American" looking at the least-American bits.
