1. A Short History of Nearly Everything A Short History of Nearly Everything
from Broadway
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:
This book presented an account of history of science in 18th, 19th and 20th century. It made science interesting with stories of scientists and their rivalry. Hmmm almost like a soap opera.
The book also brings out the complexity of life and tries to define the same through simplicity of... more info

2. A Walk in the Woods A Walk in the Woods
from Rosetta
Price: $7.19

Customer Review:
I enjoy Mr. Bryson's craft of writing. His description of the trail, and his attempt at walking it capture the imagination. Never mind that he doesn't finish the trail; it's his story of his attempt. The descriptions are vivid. It's an inspirational read, and reignites my love of hiking and makes me... more info

3. Shakespeare: The World as Stage (Eminent Lives) Shakespeare: The World as Stage (Eminent Lives)
from Eminent Lives
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:
Bill Bryson's concise biography of Shakespeare is brilliantly written, humorously insightful, and entirely delightful. The prose is a well-crafted and playful presentation of the dozen odd facts known about Shakespeare and many of the suppositions, inferences, and wild speculations about the man and... more info

4. In a Sunburned Country In a Sunburned Country
from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I read this book right before a trip to Australia, finished on the first leg of the flight. The whole time traveling around the country (great place by the way), I found myself seeing and hearing things right off the pages. My wife got so tired of listening to my chuckle and me trying to explain... more info

5. The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir
from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I do enjoy Bryson's writing, and have thoroughly enjoyed his other work. And I do enjoy the writing in this book. However...why am I not laughing so hard at this book? My boyhood in the 60s was just under ten years removed from the world Bryson describes. Yet so much of what he describes was real... more info

from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Having fell in love with the audio version of Bryson's The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid, I decided to give A Walk in the Woods a try. This audio is also read by the author.
Bill Bryson moved to Hanover, New Hampshire, and soon after realizes the the Appalachian Trail, at least part of... more info

7. The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid: A Memoir
from Broadway
Price: $16.50

Customer Review:
One of Bill Bryson's funniest books. Autobiographical stories of his childhood. Get it on tape and listen aloud. Then you can crack up with other people. Read it by yourself, and you get weird looks from people on the subway while you hold back laughter. The choice is yours. GET THIS BOOK.

8. I m a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After 20 Years Away I'm a Stranger Here Myself: Notes on Returning to America After 20 Years Away
from Broadway
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
A collection of essays on Bryson's experiences and views of America, sometimes annoyingly pretentious and pedantic (especially in the beginning), but more often clever, funny, and perfectly balanced between critical and appreciative of American culture. For me, part of the thrill is that Bryson is a... more info

9. The Mother Tongue The Mother Tongue
from Harper Perennial
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
Bryson takes you through the linguistic and historical journey of English in a wonderfully informal, comedic, anecdotal, and fact-based way. I'm a high school English teacher and I'm having my juniors and seniors read it for class--they love it!! He reaches a wide array of audiences, trust me,... more info

10. Neither Here nor There: Travels in Europe Neither Here nor There: Travels in Europe
from Harper Perennial
Price: $10.17

Customer Review:
I'm not much of a traveller, but this book is one of the most delightful romps I've ever been on. Bryson is not only a very funny guy, he has a keen eye for detail, especially the traits that make us all human in our own particular, regional way. I've already started another Bryson book.
