| | 3. |  | Shakespeare The World as Stage
Customer Review:
this book is well written with fascinating historical facts, as always, by Bill Bryson. I just love the humor and quirky information he uses in this look at the Bard. I had no idea that Shakespeare created so many of the words we use today. Amazing! I had read this a year ago and wanted a copy for... more info

| | 5. |  | Bill Bryson's African Diary
from Broadway
Price: $5.89
Customer Review:
This slim volume contains Bill Bryson's wit and
sense of humanity. I know few other writers who
can capture a sense of place as well as he can,
and his humor is matchless. My only disappoint-

a short piece of travel... more info

| | 6. |  | In a Sunburned Country
from Broadway
Price: $5.39
Customer Review:
Bill Bryson has done it again.

from Harper Perennial
Price: $4.89
Customer Review:
Though I had never read anything by the prolific Bill Bryson, this book seemed a good fit for me given my Anglophile tendencies and I anxiously began as soon as it arrived. A Midwesterner by birth, Bryson spent twenty years living in Britain before deciding to repatriate to the United States with... more info

| | 10. |  | A Short History of Nearly Everything
from Broadway
Price: $9.82
Customer Review:
Bryson's sparkling style cinches this as one of my top 10 books ever. It seems some scientific types are upset that Bryson delves into the lives of scientists making discoveries more than the discoveries themselves. This is his brilliance! If I want to learn everything there is to know about any... more info
