Summary:

For too long northerners have faced derision at the hands of southerners, whether it be about the northern climate, their thriftiness, or gloomy outlook, but all this is about to change. Now is the time for northerners to rise up as one and growl, 'I'm from t'North and I'm proud!' The Northern Monkey Survival Guide is a collection of reasons to love the North, together with some useful survival tips for anyone who dares to venture south of Birmingham.

Including:
A north-south currency conversion guide - what a cheese and onion buttie is called and what it costs
The Northern Monkey hall of fame - the greatest northerners in history
Places to avoid in the 'Beautiful South'.

The Northern Monkey Survival Guide is a celebration of the northern outlook on life and the perfect book for all northerners.

Reviews:

Packed with tongue-in-cheek observations and stereotypes about the South as well as the North

The Northern Echo

an ideal stocking filler for anyone moving south or, for that matter, newcomers to the north... would bring a smile to anyone's lips
