“Bryson in his usual humorous, inquisitive way takes us for a delighful excursion through the history of his English home—room by room. Each room, its layout, contents, etymology and usage is amazingly defined by what has happened in the rest of the world. An interesting and fun history lesson illlustrating how simple-to-complex discoveries have influenced our habitats since the 1700s. Enjoy.”—Nance, Magnolia’s Bookstore, Seattle.
