This is an AWESOME book! I'm sure that nowadays there are multiple other trivia books that have these bits of information, but to my knowledge this is one of the first "misinformation" books. It was certainly the first one I read, years ago. And it's not filled with "trivia" that everyone actually already knows, like some books. It's filled with stuff you would never think of questioning, sayings and facts that you just take for granted, without ever knowing the real truth behind them. ( )
