## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    the bestr edition of a great book
  

*by P***S on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 December 2014*

I have already read the unillustrated paperback version, but being a thickkie I wanted the pictures to help get my head around some of the deeper stuff. A great book for anyone with an iota of curiosity about the world around us. Bill manages to keep an almost child-like innocence to the questions he asks while at the same time not being patronizing with the answers. Very down to earth. Should be on every secondary school curriculum.

### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Good book but bad condition on arrival
  

*by P***D on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 July 2023*

Really like book but disappointed to say it was not in great condition on arrival. Lots of scuffs / scratches, so will be returned.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Book Bryson’s best
  

*by B***. on Reviewed in the United States on 11 October 2024*

Outstanding book that I’ve read a dozen times. Can’t recommend enough. Packed with so many tidbits I continue to learn everyone I read it.
