What does this mean?Pros & Cons
Pros
Bought for my son for christmas. There is the same humour dominic and tom bring to their podcast, and the facts in this book are some of the lesser known ones. Good book & very happy with the price and delivery.
Highlights
Quality
Sardonic humor and history is a great combination and this book nailed it.
Really like this book and it accompanies a great podcast.
The authors report that the 10,000 corpses per day melted, forming a thick custard that drowned anyone who fell into it.
Better illustrations than its uninspiring line drawings would have been welcome.
