The Lost Continent, Travels in Small Town America

The Lost Continent, Travels in Small Town America

by Bill Bryson

  • TRAVEL NARRATIVE
  • 1990
  • PAPER
  • 314 PAGES

Heading out from his native Des Moines, Bryson makes his way through 38 of these United States, tossing off hilarious observations of the American character and roadscapes. Forgive Bryson's cheap shots at fat people and "hicks," he's an acerbic, witty guide to the country with a well-developed sense of the absurd.  (USW180, $14.99)
