highly recommended
entertaining
this book is a collection of articles B.B. plublished in a british newspaper.
Most are amazingly funny - in the laugh-out-loud kind of way, and very few are slightly boring (but as they are all just a few pages long you can go through them realy fast or just skip them). I would definitely recommend this book.
Informative and entertaining, what a great read!

Very Funny
This book is great. It does not read like a traditional story. Instead it is a composite of a bunch of articles that Mr. Bryson wrote for a British newspaper
after
returning
to
America after
living in Britain for 20 or so
years
. Each chapter reads as a separate article that he wrote for the paper. The chapters are very short and sometimes he makes connections to previous articles or chapters.
I thought this book was hilarious. If you enjoy the humor of the show Sienfeld each chapter of this book reads as a basis for a Sienfeld episode. That is the best way I can describe it. The reason for this is because he makes humor out of situations that every American faces.

are so many great chapters in this book. Some of my most memorable topics include: toothpaste hotline, tax forms, experiencing the outdoors indoors, technology, and many others.
In conclusion if you like the humor of the show Sienfeld you must read this book. If you do not care for that show then pass up on this book.
