Featuring an all-new cover, New York Times bestseller Bill Bryson's irreverent and hilarious travel memoir through the beloved island nation he called home for two decades. From Downing Street to Loch Ness, this is a delightful look at British culture.

Before New York Times bestselling author Bill Bryson wrote The Road to Little Dribbling, he took this delightfully irreverent jaunt around the unparalleled floating nation of Great Britain, which has produced zebra crossings, Shakespeare, Twiggie Winkie's Farm, and places with names like Farleigh Wallop and Titsey.

• Funny Travel Book: Join Bryson on his farewell tour of Great Britain, a nation that has charmed, baffled, and endeared itself to him over two decades of life as a bemused expat.

• Hilarious Expat Memoir: See Britain through an American's eyes, from his first baffling arrival in a foggy Dover to his final journey attempting to understand a nation obsessed with milky tea and places named Titsey.

• Quintessentially British: Celebrate the delightful quirks of an island that invented the zebra crossing, treasures towns like Farleigh Wallop, and considers a trip to Cornwall an epic undertaking.

• A Nostalgic Journey: Travel back to the 1970s of three-day weeks and warm beer, and see how much -- and how little -- has changed in the Britain Bryson lovingly calls home.
