Politics Weird-o-Pedia: The Ultimate Book of Surprising, Strange, and Incredibly Bizarre Facts about Politics
Government and politics might seem twisted today, but they’ve always been strange.
There’s something about public office that, throughout time, has transcended normalcy. Politics Weird-o-Pedia presents some of the oddest and most interesting political absurdities and tidbits from around the world, from Peter the Great’s tax on beards to a lawmaker’s mistress whom he kept on the congressional payroll despite her admission that “I can't type, I can't file, I can't even answer the phone.”

In this book you get a chance to find out just how weird Politics have been and are. One thing I liked about this book was I learned a few new fun facts about Politics and Politicians. So if you like to laugh at the way things go in politics then this is a book for.
