Puzzles & Quizzes

Impossible to read at one sitting, but utterly unputdownable, "Schott's Original Miscellany" is a unique collection of fabulous trivia. What other book can boast an index that includes shoelace lengths, sign language, and the seven deadly sins; duelling and dwarves; egg sizes and election results? Where else can you find, packed onto one page, the thirteen principles of witchcraft, the structure of military hierarchy, all of the clothing care symbols, a list of the countries that drive on the left, and a nursery rhyme about sneezing? Where else will you stumble across John Lennon's car, the supplier of bagpipes to the Queen, the twelve labours of Hercules, and the brutal methods of murder encountered by miss Marple? A book like no other, "Schott's Original Miscellany" is entertaining, unpredictable, and utterly addictive.
