Description

If you've ever been in "stop and go" commuter traffic, you may have had an opportunity to wonder, "What kind of person would dare put that outrageous bumper sticker on their car?" Have you ever strained your neck to get a look at the woman who put "My other car is a broom" on her bumper? Or have you actually hoped the light would turn red so you could see the man willing to offend the "parking gods" by putting "metermaids eat their young" on his car? Here's your chance to get to know them intimately.

Author Carol Gardner took to the road for two years collecting the most hilarious and intriguing bumper stickers in America and interviewing the people behind them. Bumper Sticker Wisdom: America's Pulpit Above the Tailpipe is an outrageously funny photo album of "not ready for prime time" American heroes and heroines. But be forewarned: bumper sticker voyeurism can become addictive.

Bumper Sticker Wisdom:America's Pulpit Above the Tailpipe by Carol W. Gardner

Carol W. Gardner spent several years collecting her stories from the highways and byways of America. Her criterion for choosing her candidates? The bumper sticker had to make her think, laugh, or wonder.
Before chasing bumper stickers across America, Carol worked as an art director and creative director for advertising agencies in both San Francisco and New York. She feels that Bumper Sticker Wisdom captures a slice of America that parallels the advertising "one-liners" she has worked with over the past two decades. Carol, her husband, and her fifteen-year-old son live on a historic ranch they have restored in central Oregon.

Carol is donating a percentage of the proceeds to Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD®).
