An invaluable compendium of information and advice for anyone seeking to live and work in the United States
By Midwest Book Review
Living And Working In America: The Complete Guide To Studying, Working Or Living In The USA by Steve Mills (David Bruce Centre for American Studies, Keele University) is an invaluable compendium of information and advice for anyone seeking to live and work in the United States. Mills covers every aspect from visas and immigration laws, to employment eligibility and education opportunities, healthy care and accommodations, transportation and lodging, even cultural considerations and expectations. Comprehensive, "user friendly", and providing a wealth of contacts, resources, and more, Living And Working In America should be considered "must reading" for anyone contemplating a trip to a post 9/11 America, or who are newly arrived and seeking to acclimate themselves and make their stay a profitable and successful one whether its just for a limited time -- or the rest of their lives.

Books about differences between USA and UK
By great sailing
It is true that it covers a broad spectrum of US living,but I was a little disappointed to find that this book is mostly about covering differences between USA and the UK. It was not very helpful relative to other similar book, for me as one who came from a different country other than the UK. This book should have revealed that it is mostly written from the UK perspective. Had I known this, I would have chosen another book, not this one.
