Notes From a Big Country

by Bryson, Bill

Notes from a Big Country, or as it was released in the United States, I'm a Stranger Here Myself, is a collection of articles written by Bill Bryson for The Mail on Sunday's Night and Day supplement during the 1990s, published together first in the UK in 1998 and in paperback in 1999. The US and UK editions are not quite identical as, besides spelling differences, some explanatory information suitable for each intended audience is added or omitted within individual articles.
