At Home: A Short Story of the Private Life

By Bill Bryson...I love Bill Bryson.  He has a way of telling you things that aren't always particularly interesting...but he can make them come alive.  Bryson writes of the home...where did some of this stuff come from, rooms in the house, origins, our activities in the house...and some of our food and behavior.  In much the same way A Short History of Nearly Everything grabbed me...this book did as well.  At times funny, at times heartfelt, and most of the time very informative.  I recommend!
