Publisher's Synopsis
A compendium of arcane information that deals with questions you never knew existed until the author answered them anyway. This book is the equivalent of the guy in the pub who tells you things you never wanted to know and you have to buy him a drink just to get him to go away.
This book answers questions you didn't ask and to which you didn't even know you wanted the answers until you picked up this book: When was the BC/AD Calendar introduced? Where is the Schneider Trophy kept? Why are there 18 holes on a golf course? Does anyone in the Army still use blanco on their webbing? Why did I spend good money buying this book? All these questions are answered, along with many, many more (OK, maybe not that last one, but definitely all the others). A storehouse of treasures for you to cherish and argue about in the pub.
