    Bill Bryson writes with so much vigor and enthusiasm. It's as if you were there with him on all his adventures. I love the correlation of his trip little known facts that he throws in there. Makes you want to do your o we n research. If you love adventure and have a love foe the jabs down under I definitely recommend this read.

    As usual Bill Bryson gets it right; funny, stuffed with facts that makes one think. His ever curious mind leads us on a memorable journey not soon to be forgotten. Blake Vance Delray Beach, FL
