In this sequel to his history of the English language, "Mother Tongue", Bryson takes an informed and fond look at the history of Americans through their popular culture and language. He explains why they drive on the right, say "lootenant", and call a certain type of sandwich a "hamburger".
This book, full of fascinating facts and details, is a great way to learn about American history. It's easy to read a bit at a time, so just opening it up is not a commitment. Bryson's prose is intelligent and entertaining.
