    Book is in great condition and the hardback cover adds a touch of class. I'm a bit of a trivia nut and books like this can keep me entertained for hours at a time.

  • Worth the time - Any time

    It was part of the coffee shop's materials for customers to peruse while waiting for their drink. Even in the short amount of wait time this book offered real interesting nuggets of information that is akin to "what was never known" regarding many different subjects. It was purchased for a friend, but now it will be a slightly used book before I let go of it as a gift.
