From a press conference with Donald Rumsfeld espousing the virtues of merchandising toy helicopters to Pakistani earthquake victims, to posing undercover as working class hero Darryl Summers at a Hooters contest in America's wild west, Firth then takes you on his greatest scoop – to a toilet next to a nuclear refinery in Iran.

If you're sick of boring facts and tiresome ethical standards, then you'll love Firth in his relentless pursuit of a good story at all costs.

If you've ever wondered why capitalism is good for the poor, what the service is like at the restaurants in Iraq's Green Zone, or how to travel through South Central LA unarmed, then this book is for you.

Part expose, part war on reality, mildly delusional and completely strange, American Hoax is an utterly true account of America in the 21st century.

If you believe in the American Dream you probably won't get any of the irony in American Hoax.
