En 'Made in America', Bill Bryson ofrece una mirada informativa y afectuosa a la historia de los Estados Unidos desde la perspectiva del lenguaje y la cultura popular. El autor explora los orígenes del inglés americano, incluyendo por qué la vestimenta de las strippers se llama G-string y quién o qué es el verdadero McCoy. Con su característico humor y perspicacia, Bryson desmitifica su tierra natal, explicando cómo un polvoriento caserío desértico sin bosques ni acebo se convirtió en Hollywood, cómo no se ganó el Salvaje Oeste y por qué los estadounidenses dicen 'lootenant' y 'Toosday'.
