Praise for Lanham's Food Court Druids

"[Lanham] looks beyond mere politics, mining the vast area between NPR and NASCAR to sweepingly and hilariously generalize about many groups of everyday people... funny [and] eerily accurate." [continue reading]
The Washington Post

"Hilariously accurate descriptions of co-workers, family members, friends and other acquaintances that almost every American has encountered."
Publisher's Weekly

"Lanham's observational humor puts Jerry Seinfeld to shame."
Times Leader, Wilkes-Barre, PA

"This book is a riot."
Cleveland Plain Dealer

— Boston Globe

"The Hipster Handbook author (and Free Williamsburg creator/editor) Robert Lanham decided to go beyond our fray and tackle a wider spectrum of Americans to examine and dissect... We highly recommend it..." [continue reading]
—Gothamist

"Will cause outright, prolonged laughter—perhaps along with sighs of all-too-painful recognition." [continue reading]
—Orlando Sentinel
