A World of Curiosities

A World of Curiosities: Surprising, Interesting, and Downright Unbelievable Facts From Every Nation on the Planet by John Oldale

Oldale provides an intriguing compilation for the curious. Focusing on places around the world, each profiled country has several articles covering history, interesting facts, local people, quotes, tall tales and/or odd information. It felt like I was an antique shop of words waiting to find the next treasure around the corner.

This book will be joining my personal collection…a definite recommend. It would make an excellent gift for the trivia enthusiast, history buff, travel addict or just a nosy (curious) neighbor J
