History enthusiasts, you must read ”At Home” by Bill Bryson. If you are intrigued by how things came to be, this is the book for you! It is interesting and quite educational.
Bryson starts in each room of an old home and discusses the evolution of things pertaining to that space. I loved reading how things have changed over the years.
One of my favorite portions is how women’s roles and rights in society have changed. At the time I was reading it (and still) it seems that certain groups in society want to move women backward, into those antiquated roles. This is very concerning.
Bryson, in the end, leaves you thinking of the way things will continue to change and where that might end.
