Bryson returns to form, hilarious and heartwarming anew. You'll enjoy the long-winded retelling of his parents' explanations about how to live life in 1950s Des Moines, along with informative discussions about how to break into a vending machine without getting caught, and how not to construct an improvised explosive device to get out of school.
