England and the English as seen by an exceptional travel writer. This book is a critical description by Bryson of the 'casual civilized behaviors' of the English, a people capable of waiting years for the installation of a household appliance without complaining, yet who do not hesitate to label the attitudes of the royal family as a 'scandal' just as they start to become interesting. Bryson establishes a permanent dialogue with the reader, questioning them as if they were the ultimate entity to whom the author explains the reasons for his complaints, doubts, and sympathies towards this peculiar British people.
