This book was marketed by the author to prepare for trivia game shows. It certainly delivers on that promise. It features a wide range of information on everything from Famous People, movies, literature, history, countries, states, and much much more!!
While watching shows like Jeopardy and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, I will flip through it, and the majority of answers are really in here!!
With that being said, for an average person like myself this book may leave something be desired. Many of the sections are a little too fact based for my taste. For example, it will tell you Charles Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol, but nothing more. I know the book must be edited for space, but I am curious about a lot of things in it, and it is a pain to have to look them up elsewhere.
Overall, though a great book to study, or just casually flip through.
