Description
A fascinating excursion into the history behind the place we call home. Houses aren't refuges from history. They are where history ends up. Bryson's bathroom provides the occasion for a history of hygiene; the bedroom, sex, death, and sleep; the kitchen, nutrition and the spice trade. Whatever happens in the world, he demonstrates, ends up in our house. "[He] follows his inquisitiveness wherever it goes... There are many guilty pleasures." -- Publishers Weekly
