A funny spoof about a fictional British Royal Family, Freddy as the Prince of Wales and Fredericka is his wife (you'll quickly figure who these two characters are meant to mirror). After a series of deep embarrassments to the Queen, Freddy and Fredericka are banished.... to New Jersey. They are given the missive to gain control of the entire United States, to recover what King George lost. They are sent with false identities, no clothing and no tangible means of accomplishing this except for their instinctive sense of "Being Royal". Destitute, they work their way across America in menial jobs and move about by hopping rail cars.

Even if you only have a passing interest in Royal gossip, this book is hilarious and vividly painted satire. Through English-style humor, the author shows that we all deserve second chances and that we each have an unlimited destiny and power to do good in the world if we will choose the correct path.
