Another Bill Bryson classic

Not as funny as A WALK THROUGH THE WOODS, but very entertaining. I really like how he combines his personal journey with history of Australia. He tries to get inside the culture, but freely admits to being an outsider. I would especially recommend this book if you are planning on going to Australia in the near future. It will help you to connect with the country in a big way.


Great book filled with laughs

I loved this book and it turned me into a Bill Bryson fan. I honestly laughed out loud when I was reading this one. I'm not the type of person who gets to read all the time, but I'm glad I made the time for this one. I gave my friend a copy who will be visiting the sunburned country in a few weeks, and I know it will make the long flight go by so quickly.

Fun way to know more about Australia.

Its a great book. It covers most of Australian cities. A must read if planning on travelling to Australia.






You've got to read, or listen to, this book!

I read this book only because of how much I liked "A Short History of Nearly Everything," not because I ever plan to visit Australia. And I was absolutely correct in doing so. Hugely informative, fascinating, and often laugh-out-loud funny. Don't miss reading this book. (I listened to some of the audio version of the book -- narrated by Bryson himself. I liked it even more than the hard copy version.)


Like I was there

I really enjoy Bill Bryson already, and this book did not disappoint me. He's very descriptive and humorous - you feel like you're travelling along beside him.
