Reader Reviews
Reading this book is kind of like watching a quiz show on televison...entertaining to some degree at the time, but a few minutres later, you can't remember a thing about the questions that were asked on the TV show...it's the same with this book. Not much here, really, but facts, facts and more facts. If that's what you want, fine and good, but this is more like a board game than a book. Great of one thing, however...great to read when you wife is in the grocery store or in the mall shopping and you are parked out front waiting for her...Helps pass the time, but there's nothing memorable about the book or the way in which the facts were presented.
