Synopsis Bill Bryson lived in Britain for 20 years, then returned with his family to the U.S. Here he writes about the process of re-entry--the shocks, the adjustments, the excesses, and (especially) the funny bits.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "I once joked in a book that there are three things you can't do in life. You can't beat the phone company, you can't make a waiter see you until he is ready to see you, and you can't go home again. Since the spring of 1995, I have been quietly, even gamely, reassessing point number three."
Industry Reviews "It's not all yuks--though it is hard not to grin idiotically through all 288 pages--for Bryson is a talented portraitist of place." Kirkus Reviews (03/01/1998)
