Customer Reviews

Enjoyable drawings and a good read!

Like the other Ripley's 100th Anniversary Edition books, the book is a little bit on the small side and many adult readers will find that they get through the book pretty quick.There are some good facts in this book and lovers of art or architecture will find the drawings and styles of the buildings in this book to be very good.I partly agree with a previous reviewer that a few of the facts may be a bit corny, after all who really cares about a couple that were engaged for 30 years without being married, that's not what I'd call a great or strange work of art! Similarly, a letterbox that looks like a road runner is not really that strange (a drive around the Australian country side and you'll probably see more than a dozen letterboxes just as interesting).Give this book a try, the price won't break your bank balance and Ripley's books are pretty hard to find.

An Interesting Book

This is a great book to own. Once you read it, you'll be telling all of your friends the weird things and coincidences that have happened.
