The Road to Little Dribbling More Notes from a Small Island Synopsis
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.
'Bill Bryson's new book The Road to Little Dribbling is warm, funny, thoughtful, sometimes grumpy. An absolute joy.' Clare Balding
