Industry Reviews "For Mr. Bryson, an American journalist living in England, language is just the starting point for an informal but impressively well-informed survey of American society in general, from colonial times to the space age." Wall Street Journal - Merle Rubin (03/08/1995)
"A master of anecdote, Bryson can never see a side-road without tearing off down it; the results are...always interesting, usually hilarious and often deliciously irrelevent." Bassoff
