Bill Bryson
31 01 2007
This week in year nine history I read a quotation from Bill Bryson’s book Down Under which is called In a Sunburnt Country outside Australia.
While I like this book a lot his favourite book of mine is his first which is called The Lost Continent. It was which was published in 1989. Although it has been years since I read this book I highly recommend it. It is a very funny and easy to read account of his travels back through the small town he remembers going through on holidays as a child. Not only have many years passed but in between he lived in the UK for many years and so he saw America though his childhood American eyes and British eyes as well.
You can read a bit more about him and his books here.
