Well the Wikipedia page on the Imperial system is a start, it provides a history of the move to metric in the countries that used the Imperial system. Most of the ex British colonies continue to use a mix of metric and other, India, Australia and New Zealand having made the most progress towards full metrication.
Imperial units wikipedia
Contrary to popular belief the US does not use the Imperial system, it is a special snowflake and uses US customary units, which are similar but have different values. For example the US gallon is smaller than an Imperial gallon. Because of their proximity to the US, Canada and many Caribbean nations use a mix of both Imperial and US Customary units poor buggers.
There is also the issue of "official" vs common usage, the USA in fact was an early adopter of the metric system passing a law in 1866 making the metric system legal for use in commerce and in 1893, US Customary Units were redefined utilizing the metric system as the base (an inch is defined as being 25.4mm, that is not simply a conversion). So from a legal sense the US is very much a metric nation, but in common use much less so.
The problem with the only 3 countries are not metric thing is it was done as a got ya piece. Like the old have you stopped beating you wife gag.
The authors defined "not metric" in a narrow way that made their statement true, but misleading. You need not look any farther than a highway sign to see this, as UK highways are still signed in miles.

I am not a metric hater but I don't like deception, and the "only 3 countries" thing irritates the crap out of me. Not surprisingly in a country founded on "you are not my mother" the government has taken a soft approach to conversion.
