Notes from a Small Island - Bill Bryson


Another of Bryson's casual tales of his travels- this time around Britain. He obviously enjoys Britain much more than America and this book is as positive as his Lost Continent book is negative. It is hard to believe that he can find more pleasure in the wet and barren countryside than he can in Yosemite, but he does. While I haven't been to Great Britain, the book is not as enjoyable of a read as his others. Perhaps if you enjoy British TV shows, you will find more pleasure than I in this book.
