Have you ever wondered what the biggest failures in American history are? Which sports teams just can’t seem to catch a break and keep failing, over and over and over in the most disastrous manner? What are some of the biggest failures in American pop culture? In The United States of Epic Fails: 52 Crazy Stories and Blunders Through History That You Didn't Get Taught in School you’ll learn all about these embarrassing moments and many other American failures on an epic level. Here you will find out: What film almost destroyed a major studio and killed a movie genre? How did George Washington fail so miserably in his early military career? Who was the NFL player that famously ran the wrong way? When did Coca-Cola make its most epic failure? What popular lawn game was outlawed for being too dangerous? We Americans may be used to being #1 and take a certain amount of pride in that, but this book takes a look at the less successful cases in American history in the world of politics, science, sports, and pop culture.

Whether you consider yourself a history buff, or you like watching train wrecks, there’s sure to be plenty in this book to keep your interest. From failed TV shows to presidential campaigns that probably shouldn’t have happened and big mistakes made by some of the most brilliant people in the world, The United States of Epic Fails will give you plenty to talk about with your friends and family at the next gathering. So open this book and your mind and see another side of the USA that you may not know existed.
