I haven't read it but I came across the website while I was holidaying at Helen's and we had a long discussion about it. My resulting posting on the subject got a few interesting comments. Looks like a book for my wishlist, I think.

I definitely think it would be your kind of book!
Given it's subject and being edited by Bill Bryson I'm actually surprised you haven't read it before.
