Jerry B. reviewed on 7/25/2009

For me the book was a pleasurable read but not a compelling read. Most of the younger men (about Bryson's age) in my book group would have rated it a four. Perhaps living through the period of the book but also being ten years older contributed to my attitude. Bryson's insights and general commentary on the times are insightful and expanded my memory and understanding of 1950-1970.
