About this book

A tour through Bill Bryson's Norfolk rectory becomes a history of domestic life. Each room supplies a starting point for examining the commerce, inventions, architecture and customs that have shaped homes. Familiar surroundings prompt questions about how ordinary comforts developed and how large historical changes entered the spaces where people live.
