As the author says himself, you will either love or hate this book. Not much room for in-between. Personally, I loved it. Vintage King dialogue and New England characters.

Very detailed, perhaps to a fault, but a good read for the history buff. You have to be impressed with the extent of the author's research.

The micro world inside our own homes...very interesting. Kinda creepy in ways, finding out what goes on under our eyes and noses, but still a good read.

Just like the title says. Explains in understandable language just how far a light-year really is and how small a micrometer is. Fun to read.

Tons of trivia about the Summer Olympics up to the 1996 Games. Fascinating behind the scene stories seldom heard.

Fun way to organize lists - based on the number of items on the list. For example - Who were the 3 Musketeers? to What are the 20 Regions of Italy. There are multiple lists under each number. Fun for any trivia nut.
