Neither Here Nor There: Travels in Europe
2 journalers for this copy...
found I have 2 copies of this one -
Back Cover:
Like many of his generation, Bill Bryson backpacked across Europe in the early seventies - in search of enlightenment, beer and women. Twenty years later, the acclaimed author of The Lost Continent and The Mother Tongue decided to retrace the journey he undertook in the halcyon days of his youth - carrying with him a bag of maps, old clothes...and a stinging wit honed to razor sharpness by two decades of adult experience. The result is Neither Here Nor There, an affectionate, blisteringly insightful and riotously funny pilgrimage from the frozen wastes of Scandinavia to the chaotic tumult of Istanbul, with stops along the way in Europe's most diverting and historic locales - a brutally frank and uproarious tourist's eye view of the Old World according to Bryson.

changing this one to TBR as I can't find the duplicate copy.
This one was a stop and go read for me....I do enjoy Bryson's humor so I made it to the end. Will not be a favorite of his for me.
