One Summer: America, 1927

I love Bill Bryson’s writing.It’s his dry, sarcastic wit that I enjoy so much; I think I grew to enjoy his style while living in England.If Bryson were to write more history books, enough to be used in K-12 schools, America’s children would get a 50-point bump in history, geography, politics and literature scores on what-ever testing they’re using these days.This is a pure joy, even at 500 pages with full sources, bibliography and index.

I wasn't sure about reading any more ...Bill Bryson, sometimes too snarky for my taste, but this book was amazing to read. the weaving in and out of the events of one summer, intertwining the stories...just an amazing piece of research and writing. Being from Detroit, how much of the action was centered, or related to what is now a tired mid-western city looking for it's direction...it was an amazing piece of the action. Great book, highly recommended. I couldn't put it down.MoreLess
