jemmania's review against another edition

informative medium-paced

5.0

THIS is the kind of history I live for. History that feels rich & meaningful with real colorful figures. History that isn't bogged down with mindless dates and titles. I listened to the audiobook, read by Bryson himself. This is the optimal experience. I would also highly recommend One Summer: America, 1927.
