Synopsis

Not just your average miscellany, "Shite's Unoriginal Miscellany" is a collection of arcane, vital and merely fascinating information that you probably didn't even need to know, in no particular order, everything from flowerpot sizes and semaphore signals to ways of escaping from wild animals (probably) and Elvis sightings in history. Also including, amongst other random bits of information that will probably come in useful when you least expect it, a do-it-yourself index as well as charming, interesting, and sometimes hilarious, black-and-white line drawings. The ideal gift for anyone with a thirst for knowledge, useful or otherwise, "Shite's Unoriginal Miscellany" is perfect for those who love fact-for-fact's-sake and those who are, frankly, just big intellectual show-offs.
