I'm from UK and I don't do idols, but i once took a detour on a US drive from SD to Philidephia to include Des Moines because I wanted to see the city where Bill Bryson grew up.

[@mfranssens]

Qudos, I’ve wanted to see where Bill grew up. He describes it so well in his books. I’m also from the UK.

[@dannypaterson888]

@mfranssens It was a lot bigger than I expected. Probably naively, I was expecting a town. It was, in fact, by 2012 anyway, a large modern city.

@@dannypaterson888 I’ll pass. 😂 You saved me a long detour. He made it sound like a rural idyll. His grandpa watching tornadoes in the distance. Lemonade on the wraparound wooden porch. Sleeping out there on hot summer nights. If it’s all changed and small town America has disappeared, probably not worth going there to be disappointed.

Thanks for posting this. I do adore Bryson's work.

Thoroughly researched, superbly written, compellingly read by this wonderful author. Thank you, Mr Bryson.

I couldn't agree more. The other night I browsed through BB's Made in America. To his enormous credit, he doesn't accept what is commonly thought to be the truth regarding a past event or an individual.

This is so interesting. Thank you for posting.

[@scottrussell5866]

I love this. Before I retired, I had a colleague devoted to some alternate Shakespeare hypothesis because he was related to the alternate. Lame and pathetic. Thank you, Bryson.

Smashing idea, running this engaging audiobook with background visuals/ video. Thanks for your effort! ☺

Its an interesting book, re-reading it again as i write this. Considering how many people lived in England and the Americans hadn't yet been found, the majority of us white anglo Saxon Brits will, somewhere, have unrecorded ancestors who were living and breathing at the same time as William Shakespe. The population then was only 3-5 million, depending on wars/plague.

The furniture in the museum is his original stuff from when he lived there. Wood can last hundreds (occasionally thousands) of years as long as it's consistently dry or wet (it can last many thousands wet).

King Henry Part 6 is the best of the King Henry franchise

[@1evonvielen]

Wait, do you mean Henry VI (but which part? There are 3) or the 6th Henry-play (but in which order? IV to VIII or in the chronology it was written? VI, IV, V, VIII?). Im so confused but I really wanna know :D

They were not firing live muskets!! 1:46. Think about it for a millisecond as to why.? Why even bother to fire live rounds. Its not required for the effect of gunfire and its a real pain to load each time so of course they were not firing loaded weapons. Must have been some story that spread after something else caused the deaths. Its entirely possible that a poorly packed musket could fire off some debris at very close range to cause injury even if not loaded with a projectile. Its not as if they had a reliable account if the interior of the building but the account of a live round going off into the crowd is gospel truth!! 😂😂😂😂. Of course they did not fire live rounds. Get a grip.

[@veronicamaine3813]

Dude calm down - it’s a book. The historical record implies that something quite lethal fired out of the musket since it killed 2 people.whose to say they didn’t just use a real gun that happened to be loaded for real (intentionally or not). Considering the globe burnt down because of canon fire it’s hardly that far fetched
