Bill Bryson is a great writer - both amusing and ingenious .. have you read his 'A Short History of Nearly Everything' .. a very good read .. many of the facts in the book are mind blowing

is it not just fantastic now i have bought lovejoyHi Wedward,
I cannot accurately recall the title, and think I still have the book somewhere in storage, but was called something like 'Women at War' from the mid-80's. It was basically a collection of first-hand accounts of how women's letters and recollections from WWII.
It covered families from all nations and clearly showed how one's spirit survived through all types of tragedies, how they could always see the humorous side and most importantly of all, that wars only cause pain and suffering and showed never be allowed...
I also read Bill Bryson's 'Notes from a Small Island' and done a review of it when I worked in a book store and he is extremely good, but yet to read more from him, though I like your 'Short History of Everything' Charlie.
I would also recommend 'McCarthy's Bar: A Journey of Discovery In Ireland' as its pretty funny..
Enjoy your Sunday evening everyone..
