Bill Bryson turns his eye into his own home in this thick but interesting book. Each room teaches you something about English history, or gives details about how pieces of furniture came into use . It is typical of his writing, it meanders from one topic to the next, but in an interesting and engaging way. If you are a fan of his other books you should enjoy this one. Each chapter can be read independently, you can hopscotch through the book without losing the theme.
