The Road to Little Dribbling: More Notes From a Small Island by Bill Bryson

5.0

---

Twenty years ago Bryon wrote Notes from a Small Island, a hilarious account of his journey round the coast of Britain. Now he writes about the country again, this time following "The Bryson Line" from Bognor Regis in the south to Cape Wrath, the northern-most tip of Scotland. I thoroughly enjoyed being in his company - he's both funny and erudite. He is enough of an outsider to see the British clearly, and enough of an insider to understand it. He has a sincere appreciation for the countryside and all the things that make the country special. He is appropriately grouchy about all the things that make the country crap (like bad service) and you just hope that the right people have the folly of their ways pointed out to them with this book.

The audiobook is also very good.
