Salon Wanderlust | A Talk With Bill Bryson
Wanderlust editor Don George talks with author bill bryson about writing, hiking and other arduous pleasures.
http://www.salon.com/wlust/feature/1998/05/20feature.html

Extractions: Wanderlust Features archives BY DON GEORGE B ill Bryson's new book, "A Walk in the Woods," is a delightful and enlightening account of the author's attempts to hike the Appalachian Trail. The work is distinguished by its vivid depictions of the landscapes and the people Bryson encounters and also by the writer's engaging combination of reverence and wit, qualities that are also abundant in the interview below, which was recorded by telephone earlier this month. You are usually referred to as a "travel writer," and your books are shelved in the "travel books" area of bookstores, but you are hardly a conventional travel writer. What does the term "travel writing" mean to you?

Text version See also: quotes from the Bill Bryson books From Bill Bryson's African Diary by Bill Bryson: "So how dangerous is Kenya then?" I asked in a small, controlled squeak. "Oh, not at all," they responded in unison. "Well, hardly," Will added. "It depends on what you mean by dangerous, of course," said Dan. "Like bleeding and not getting up again," I suggested. "Being shot and stabbed and so forth," I added. They assured me that that only rarely happened, and that it was nearly always one or the other. You had to be very unlucky to be shot and stabbed, they said. "It's mostly diseases you have to worry about," Nick went on. "Malaria, schistosomiasis, trypanosomiasis ..." "Rift Valley fever, blackwater fever, yellow fever ..." said Dan. "Dengue fever, bilharzia - the usual tropical stuff," added Will. But they pointed out that you can be inoculated against many of those and for the rest most people manage a more or less complete recovery, given time and a considered programme of physiotherapy. Many even walk again. I asked if there was anything else I should know. "Well, the roads are a little dangerous - there are some crazy drivers out there," Will said, chuckling.

http://www.cpre.org.uk/about/people/agm-2007-bill-bryson-speech

Extractions: You hardly need me to tell you how lucky you are to have what you have in this country. Being surrounded by such a sumptuous diversity of history and beauty is a delight and a privilege, of course, but it is also a great danger. When you have such an abundance of great things, it is easy to think of it as essentially inexhaustible and to persuade yourself that it can be nibbled away at without serious loss. I hate it when people think like that. In 1986, at the time the electricity companies were being privatized, the Economist magazine calculated that if all the electricity generating companies were required to devote one half of one percent of their turnover to burying overhead cables, we would be able to bury 1000 miles of them every year. There are 8,000 miles of high-voltage power lines in this country, so they would all be buried now.

What are the health implications of drinking salt waterwill it make you vomit, will it make you delirious, will it dehydrate you further, etc.? Jesse Sussell SDSTAFF Dex replies: Water, water, every where, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, The Rime of the Ancient Mariner p art II, s tanza 9 We need water to live, and we need salt to live, so what's the big deal about sailors not being able to drink saltwater? The answer is that we only need a small amount of salt to live. According to the Salt Institute (a non-profit association of salt producers, founded in 1914), the recommended daily dose is around 500 mg/day around a quarter of a teaspoonful. The optimal amount of salt varies based on the person's lifestyle genetic makeup and geographic location (basically, all factors that affect how often and how much you sweat)

Along the way, she acquired a London Black Cab in England, a Jack Russell terrier in the Republic of Georgia, and lots of Traveler's Diarrhea and useless money from East European countries. She lives in a small town in Austria. Some of her articles can be viewed at McCracken Archives Bill Bryson writes this about public bathrooms in "The Life and Times of The Thunderbolt Kid": "There was a long line of toilet cubicles and they all had those dividers that allowed you to see the feet of the people in flanking cubicles, which I never understood, and indeed still don't. It's hard to think of a single circumstance in which seeing the feet of the person next door would be to anyone's advantage."
