Bryson's essays were not directional process analysis. They were more of a informational process analysis. A directional process analysis gives the steps in a process that the reader can perform if he or she wants to and informational process analysis is more for informational purposes that are more than likely not going to be performed by the reader as stated in Ch. 9 pages 251-252.
In the essay "A Visit To The Barbershop" Bryson takes us through each step of his visit to the barbershop. Also in "Deck The Halls," he is giving his step-by-step process that he goes through every year in preparation for Christmas.
The main purpose for using process analysis in his essays is to entertain and to express his feelings and relate his experience to the reader.
