Welcome to The American
theamerican.co.uk is the 'sister' to The American newspaper, the monthly publication for all Americans in the British Isles. You may know the paper – it has been published since 1976, the hub of the vibrant and diverse American community in the British Isles. The new website aims to take that philosophy and extend it into new areas – over the coming weeks we will be listening to the feedback we're getting from readers and community members and adding the news, facilities and features that you want. There will be a Forum for American expatriates and lots of news about US community groups in the UK – just send us yours! All our pages are updated regularly so please come back to check out what's new – and add to it.
