The Lost Continent (BBC Radio Collection)

Inhaltsangabe

Hardly anyone ever leaves Des Moins, Iowa. But Bill Bryson did, and after ten years in England he decided to go home - to a foreign country. In an ageing Chevrolet Chevette he drove nearly 14,000 miles through 38 states to compile this amusing state-of-the-nation report on small-town America.

He found only a greedy, polluted nightmare.
