Strange History - Bathroom Readers' Institute

I love books like this where every page is a something new waiting to be discovered. I found it hard to put the book down and even when I wasn't reading it, I was thinking about it. Inside, you can find historical facts encompassing everything from the longest unassisted solo cow flight in recorded history to historical facts about famous figures, to the treasures one can find digging up old privies (I fully expect Outhouse Detectives to be a series on the History Channel sometime in the near future.)

 

Strange History is a fascinating, entertaining and side-splitting read that will stay with you for a long time.  At the very least, you'll never look at an Olympic torch relay the same way again.
