One Summer America 1927. Bill Bryson writes with a droll humor that makes just about any topic or tangential topic very interesting and of course it's filled with laugh out loud passages

One Summer. Delightful and riveting. The characters in this book from Lindbergh to Ruth are astonishing. Makes me wish I had lived in the era.

One Summer by Bill Bryson. Simply superb. I'm reading it slowly because I never want to finish it. Take away #1: there have always been crackpot extremists in American politics, and they have always made bad decisions (compare the Tea Party to the Anti-Saloon League, for example).

Great Book. This was a very fine read about an important era in America's history. Bryson does a great job of tying stories together with interesting facts.

Fascinating!. Mr. Bryson always turns out a great read. Humor, unknown facts, amazing heroes and villainous villains. It's all there in a real page turner. I wish Bill Bryson would have been my American History teacher!

Outstanding!. Thoroughly enjoyed this trip through the 1920's and 1927, in particular. Bill Bryson has a knack for writing about people and places that leave me wanting to learn more. I've read almost all his books and look forward to the rest.

Read it!. Bill Bryson makes history fascinating. It reads like non-fiction in that it is hard to put down. I wish I could find more books like this.

Fun reading.. I love history, and no one tells a small sliver of American History as entertainingly as Bryson. Fun reading.

Sheer delight. By turns fascinating, hysterical and astounding. Events and people everyone knows are revealed as so much more interesting than we ever knew, and one more than a few occasions, much more horrible. A great read and an amazing set of stories.

Enjoyable & Informative. My first book by Bryson and I will look into some of his other works based on this book. I would have enjoyed it more if I had not recently read the biography of Charles Lindbergh who figures prominently in this book. Bryson includes many funny and interesting details about major evensts. Overall a good read...EAF

A Great History of the Twenties. Bryson skillfully weaves significant events of the twenties, culminating in the summer of 1927. Some of the events are well known while others have become obscure. It's an interestingly written history about the best and worst of America during one of its greatest hay days.

I didn't want it to end. I got so caught up in this most interesting and informative book that I slowed down towards the end because I wanted it to last longer.

Phenomenal Read. Brings 1927 alive in a fascinating story. Stories of Babe Ruth, Lou Guering, Al Capone, Charles Lindbergh......
