In a Sunburned Country by Bill Bryson
4.0

I like Bryson, so I knew I would like this book. As funny as his other ones. Full of lots of historical tidbits about Australia. He is very interested in things that can kill you (and there are lots of them in Australia) and in odd stories, like the one about the Prime Minister who dove into the sea and was never seen again. This book makes me really want to go to Australia. It's clear that Bryson really admires it.
