A Fish Out of Water in a Land of Manicured LawnsAn eternal optimist trades a Manhattan cubicle for a lawn mower he doesn't know how to start.What could possibly go wrong?Everything, as it turns out.When a hapless Australian swaps his office job for a franchise mowing lawns across the manicured suburbs of Connecticut, there's just one small problem: he can't tell a weed from a hydrangea.Armed with nothing but relentless self-belief, and a franchise manual he probably should have read more closely, he sets out to build a business among clients who know their gardens and yards better than he knows his own excuses.What follows is a string of mishaps and near-disasters that somehow, gradually, grow into something resembling a career — and a crash course in American suburbia, one lawn at a time.Part memoir, part fish-out-of-water comedy, Yards and Stripes is for anyone who has ever leapt before they looked, and for anyone who might enjoy watching an Aussie do it first.Get your copy of Yards and Stripes today and discover the best stories — like the best lawns — grow from the messiest starts.
