Great book. He has such a wonderful sense of humor and "everyday guy" persona. Bryson's writing is always engaging and easy to read. I liked it so much it may be one of those rare books I actually read again.

Bill Bryson has such a way with words. He can take a place I never lived in and a time I never lived through and make me feel right at home there. He's absolutely hilarious and I love taking these "trips" with him in this book and his travel writing too!
I haven't read this book for a number of years now, but I can still remember specific passages that make me laugh out loud :)
