About this title

From the Author

Facts that are surprising, interesting and fun to know
I wrote "Knowledge in a Nutshell" to give the public highlights of my 50 year collection of interesting facts. The criteria I used in selecting the facts was choosing stories that surprised me, or taught me something interesting, or were fun to know. And every fact had to be double-checked and verified. This book appeals to people of all ages, young and old. People tell me the book is a great converstation starter, a fun party book, and an appreciated gift any time of year. It's an easy read that may have you shake your head in wonder, smile, or learn some things you didn't know before. This compact paperback is a great traveling companion on airplanes, on car trips or just an entertaining way to spend an evening. As one reader told me, "He thinks of me every time he goes to the bathroom...'Knowledge In a Nutshell' is a great bathroom book."
