Negative Positive
Title: If you read this from cover to cover;I'd be surprised.
Review: I often pick up books of facts like this and generally find them pretty good.However;in this case I was disappointed.There was some stuff I found interesting and novel;but generally I found most of it rather mundane.Also,this book is heavily weighted with British and european facts and data that at the most only makes you wonder about North America.That is not to say that it is completely void of anything in North america,but it is quite sparse.As I read the book,I found that many,even most,subjects were of little interest to me,hence;in many cases once I readthe title ,I simply skipped it.The sub-title of the book,"Facts,Figures And Stories That Make Everyday Life Extraordinary";is much better at promising than delivering.
