Reviews

Warm, funny, thoughtful, sometimes grumpy. An absolute joy.
+ in Country Life:
I snorted with laughter…The Road to Little Dribbling is consistently and unendingly fabulous…I intend on buying a copy for everyone I know.
*Clare Balding*

Fans should expect to chuckle, snort, snigger, grunt, laugh out loud and shake with recognition…a clotted cream and homemade jam scone of a treat.
*Sunday Times*

Is it the funniest travel book I’ve read all year? Of course it is.
*Daily Telegraph*

There were moments when I snorted out loud with laughter while reading this book in public…He can be as gloriously silly as ever.
*The Times*

Bryson has no equal. He combines the charm and humour of Michael Palin with the cantankerousness of Victor Meldrew and the result is a benign intolerance that makes for a gloriously funny read.
*Daily Express*
