A Short History of Nearly Everything You might call A SHORT HISTORY an intellectual travel book. It still features Bryson traveling into the unknown -- but what awaits him are not surly waiters and lumpy beds, but brilliant oddballs obsessed with huge, probably unanswerable questions. It is an adventure of the mind -- one Bryson's fans will be delighted to go along with, as they have embraced his non-travel books on the English language. Paperback 09/14/2004
