Fun book and might learn a few trivial things

This was a "light" and "fun" book full of trivial facts. Certainly not heavy reading. Just trivial, interesting (if you didn't know) and fun.

(I am horrible at reviews)

Fantastic

Loved it. If you are in to facts read by the dulcent tone of Mr. Whistler's voice this is for you.

Very interesting

Lots of interesting facts read by Simon Whistler. Many of the facts were things it never occurred to me to ask before now. Really nice pace. Entertaining book.
