Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. Introduction
Some time after we moved into a former Church of England rectory in a village of tranquil anonymity in Norfolk, I had occasion to go up into the attic to look for the source of a slow but mysterious drip. Chapter I
The Year
In the autumn of 1850, in Hyde Park in London, there arose a most extraordinary structure: a giant iron-and-glass greenhouse covering nineteen acres of ground and containing within its airy vastness enough room for four St. Paul's Cathedrals. | |

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk. Jane Loudon published "Gardening for Ladies" in 1841. It was the first book to encourage women of elevated classes to get their hands dirty and even to take on a faint glow of perspiration. It bravely insisted that women could manage gardening independent of male supervision if they simply observed a few sensible precautions - working steadily but not too vigorously, using only light tools, never standing on damp ground because of the unhealthy emanations that would rise up though their skirts. Here is Mrs Loudon explaining what a spade does. | |

Hans eget hus er fra 1851 tegnet af en Mr Marsham, som var præst fra Norfolk. Præster dengang havde god tid og var særdeles vellønnede. Så der er en lang opremsning af præster og præstebørn, som har gjort noget godt for verden, fx Bayes - kendt fra Bayesian statistik.
Bryson starter med Krystalpaladset fra verdensudstillingen i 1851 og når vidt omkring. The Hall beskriver underlige over 5000 år gamle stenhuse fundet ved Skara Brae.
