Some interesting stuff in here, but haphazard way it was thrown together makes for a less than average experience.
No transitions for the very odd placement of stories and facts(?). For a book advertising "Amazing Curiosities" most were not amazing and some were barely even curiosities. For example what is amazing or curious about "19 Popular TV Shows of the 1960s"
Not the best of the genre.....
