Notes from a Small Island
Description
Before New York Times bestselling author Bill Bryson wrote The Road to Little Dribbling, he took this delightfully irreverent jaunt around the unparalleled floating nation of Great Britain, which has produced zebra crossings, Shakespeare, Twiggie Winkie’s Farm, and places with names like Farleigh Wallop and Titsey.

|“Astute and funny-an amusing guide to the U.K.’s foibles, as well as a tribute to its enchantments, by an unabashed Anglophile.” - New York Times Book Review
