This becomes all too apparent when, after nearly two decades in England, he upped sticks and returned to live in the country he had left as a youth. Of course there were things Bryson missed about Blighty, but any sense of loss was countered by the joy of discovering some of the forgotten treasures of his childhood. Gathered together here are eighteen month's worth of his popular columns about the American way of life.
