At Home: A Short History of Private Life by Bill Bryson

5.0

Thoroughly enjoy Bryson and appreciate his detailed research. It's brilliant how he walks us through each room of the house and tells the history of all that is behind it, from architecture to why the men of the 1700's wore wigs. Though many may find his work laborious, I enjoy reading a few sections at a time in between all of the fiction I read, just to learn a little bit of history. Take your time and savor it.
