Description:
The irresistible book by Bill Bryson which does for the history of the way we live what A Short History of Nearly Everything did for science.



In At Home, Bill Bryson applies the same irrepressible curiosity, irresistible wit, stylish prose and masterful storytelling that made A Short History of Nearly Everything one of the most lauded books of the last decade, and delivers one of the most entertaining and illuminating books ever written about the history of the way we live.




Bill Bryson was struck one day by the thought that we devote a lot more time to studying the battles and wars of history than to considering what history really consists of- centuries of people quietly going about their daily business - eating, sleeping and merely endeavouring to get more comfortable. And that most of the key discoveries for humankind can be found in the very fabric of the houses in which we live.This inspired him to start a journey around his own house, an old rectory in Norfolk, wandering from room to room considering how the ordinary things in life came to be.




Along the way he did a prodigious amount of research on the history of anything and everything, from architecture to electricity, from food preservation to epidemics, from the spice trade to the Eiffel Tower, from crinolines to toilets; and on the brilliant, creative and often eccentric minds behind them. And he discovered that, although there may seem to be nothing as unremarkable as our domestic lives, there is a huge amount of history, interest and excitement - and even a little danger - lurking in the corners of eve

Fits your COVID vaccine card!
This wallet is very lovely (fine workmanship, smooth and not distressed leather as in the photo). Comes in a quality metal box that has possibly thrilled my husband even more than the wallet itself. Holds everything including weird currencies, parking stubs, even your COVID vaccine document — you do have one, right? Perfect gift.

Well made,
The leather is flawless, all the stitching is well done, the ability to organize my cards in groups worked out well. It's overall size is fine, fits well in a front pocket, flatter than a tri-fold, not bulky. My only wish would be making the width of the inner double sided leather card holder page pockets just 1/8" wider. In my opinion this would then be a 5-star wallet. One spot to hold some of the just wider than credit card size for easy access would be nice. Besides that, I intend to use it until it is worn out. Nice wallet!

Size matters
Color: Derrick Dark Brown, Size: One Size
The quality of the wallet is fine, but the size… it’s way to big to fit in a man’s pocket easily. I should’ve done a better job reading the measurements, but dang!
