This collection of random facts (some more random than factual) is decently entertaining when taken in small doses. Read for too long of a stretch, however, and the horrible puns really start to get to you.

Think you know a lot about history and all you know is the truth? Take a gander at this book and you'll come to know things that you never knew before and you may have to unlearn some of the things you've known all your life.
