The Road To Little Dribbling, Bill Bryson

Twenty years ago, Bill Bryson went on a trip around Britain to celebrate the green and kindly island that had become his adopted country. The hilarious book that resulted, Notes from a Small Island, was taken to the nation's heart and became the bestselling travel book ever, and was also voted in a BBC poll the book that best represents Britain. Now, to mark the twentieth anniversary of that modern classic, Bryson makes a brand-new journey round Britain to see what has changed.Following (but not too closely) a route he dubs the Bryson Line, from Bognor Regis to Cape Wrath, by way of places that many people never get to at all, Bryson sets out to rediscover the wondrously beautiful, magnificently eccentric, endearingly unique country that he thought he knew but doesn't altogether recognize any more. Yet, despite Britain's occasional failings and more or less eternal bewilderments, Bill Bryson is still pleased to call our rainy island home. And not just because of the cream teas, a noble history, and an extra day off at Christmas.Language: EnglishThe Road to Little Dribbling, Bill Bryson, good conditionDoubleday, hardcover with dust jacket, 385 pagesISBN 9780857522344Price without shipping costsPrijs exclusief verzendkostenDit boek is te dik voor brievenbuspost (385 pagina's!) en kan alleen als pakket worden verstuurd.Binnen Nederland gratis verzending bij een aankoop van € 50,00 of meer.Betaal minder of geen verzendkosten, door meer boeken te bestellen.
