Customer Reviews

Another fascinating bit of miscellany

Just as in his previous efforts, Mr. Schott assembles an amusing collection of trivia. Well worth the effort whenever one wants to waste some time. Thoroughly enjoyable, and you learn something as well!

Endlessly entertaining

I bought this book as a gift for my husband, a true sports addict and a true student of all that he watches. Ever since he received it, I've caught him many times, poring over the pages, learning even more trivia with which to bedevil me and his friends. Part of the decision was based on my previous experience with the Schott guides, which we've enjoyed thoroughly.
