Description
After 20 years away, Bill Bryson returns to the United States with his English wife and four children. He finds a country that has changed in unexpected ways, with new customs and technologies that are both fascinating and disconcerting. In "I'm a Stranger Here Myself", Bryson recounts his sometimes humorous and often bemused attempts to reacquaint himself with his own country. This book is a love letter to the homeland he has returned to, filled with vivid scenes of one man's struggle to adjust to a new America.
