When an old friend asked him to write a weekly dispatch from New Hampshire for the Mail on Sundayâs Night and Day magazine, Bill Bryson firmly turned him down. So firm was he, in fact, that gathered here are nineteen monthsâ worth of his popular columns for the Mail on Sunday about the strangest of phenomenaâthe American way of life. Whether discussing the dazzling efficiency of the garbage disposal unit, the mind-boggling plethora of methods by which to shop, the exoticism of having your groceries bagged for you, or the jaw-slackening banality of American TV, Bill Bryson brings his inimitable brand of bemused wit to bear on the worldâs richest and craziest country.
