"Neither Here Nor There" by Bill Bryson
Bill Bryson's 2nd travel book, after "The Lost Continent". In "Neither Here Nor There" he describes a journey through Europe, from Norway to Instanbul, made around 1990 (a year of momentous political change), retracing a journey he made as a student in the 1970s.
I can't read Bill Bryson's books in public - it would be too embarrassing. He's one of the few authors who has the ability to have me howling in helpless laughter at his writing.
This was a quick, fun, read, and the Kindle edition is very nicely formatted. I recommend it.
