From the Back Cover
5087 Trivia Questions and Answers is the definitive collection for diehard trivia buffs (and the rest of us who think we know a thing or two). A mammoth assortment of minutia, it's guaranteed to boggle the minds of even the most informed and eclectic readers. With entries on everything from the amount Warner Communications paid for the rights to the song "Happy Birthday" to the strange death that befell Atilla the Hun, it's an endless source of obscure and enlightening entertainment.
Based on nearly twenty years of the 365 Amazing Trivia Facts Page-A-Day Calendar--the quintessential source of fun information for trivia fanatics--5087 Trivia Questions and Answers is organized by chapter with themes like The Cinema, Language, War & The Military and The World. Questions range from science to entertainment, antiquity to the Space Age, and include some little-known facts about some well-known people, like the special clause Jimmy Stewart had worked into all his movie contracts and the president who was ticketed for speeding during his term by Washington, D.C. police. Other entries expose those undeniably entertaining trivia gems, like the name of the dog on the Cracker Jack box or the difference between a nook and a cranny.
5087 Trivia Questions and Answers is virtually bursting with facts that inhabit the murky ground between essential and irrelevant--from the number of exclamation points in Tom Wolfe's bestselling The Bonfire of the Vanities to the number of grooves on the edge of a quarter. Accept the challenge and test your knowledge in this exhaustive compilation of obscure statistics and vital details, with the answers to some of life's least important but most intriguing questions, and all the facts they never taught you in school.
