Have you ever wanted to know how to make a supersize marshmallow? Ever wondered about secret societies like the Illuminati, Cathars or Knights Templar? Do you want to learn about some of history's most famous scam artists? Are you simply interested in the wild, wooly, grotesque underbelly of the world?

If you love reading general information books like "The Guinness Book of World Records" or "Top 10 of Everything" you'll love this book! This is a fun book of trivia, but its topics are completely random and make little sense how it's organized. Lots of typos and errors, too.

A colorful compendium of interesting facts & tales - some of which were a bit UL'ish. A UK publication that seemed geared to young adult readers, but was still entertaining enough.
