I'm a Stranger Here Myself : Notes on Returning to America After Twenty Years Away (Abridged Audio Cassette)

Bryson's commentary on American trends and habits is amusing--at times his point of view came across as strange, however, because these essays were originally written to be published in an English newspaper...so he says things like "You wouldn't believe how many breakfast cereals are for sale here!" or "There's something called a Slurpee..."
Overall it was entertaining but not exactly what I expected.
