If you're at all interested in word origin and general history, you'll love this book. Is it a "formula" book. Yes, but isn't that what keeps you coming back for more Bill Bryson??

What made the experience of listening to Made in America the most enjoyable?
I listened to it on my Kindle every night to fall asleep in between trips to the bathroom. 😉. It is fun to listen to, easy to fall asleep to, though reader's emotional voice was a bit over the top for relaxation. But fun and amusing as Mr. Bryson ALWAYS is!What other book might you compare Made in America to and why?
Only his others...but really no comparison. It's filled with fun facts about words and sayings!What does William Roberts bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
A bit of over-the-top emotional investment.If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Makes English fun!Bedtime listenng
