Bill Bryson NOTES FROM A SMALL ISLAND An Affectionate Portrait of Britain Volume 2 Dotty old England and narrator-host Bill Bryson are the stars of Notes from a Small Island, based on Bryson's 1995 gentle skewering of all things British. Bryson's fondness for the country comes from his 20 years of living there. So when the ex- Midwesterner says, with a curiously Anglicized accent, that the country exceeds at dottiness, you can't help but smile with him as he pokes fun at what the country seems to be about. "New towns feel like they were designed by people who heard about America on the radio," he laments, before spotlighting an old one built in the mid-1800s. He touches on the Americanization of the Queen's English, then focuses on the Hebrides, where Gaelic is still spoken. This second of three volumes also explores Britain's once-technological dominance with a trip to a patent library, a visit to one of the subway's closed "ghost stations," and a recounting of William Morris, who left school at 15 to become a bike mechanic and design the car that became the MG. It's filled with a little bit of this and a little bit of that, presented with engaging eccentricity.
