Unimpressive Fact Checking

January 6, 2019

In the first four minutes of looking through the book I found two major errors. Under "KENNEDY's" he states Joseph Kennedy Jr. died in World War I. If so he would have died when he was three. He died in World War II. Under "September 11th" the author states two terrorist highjacked aircraft crashed into the World Trade Center towers and two into fields. Last time I checked one of those aircraft crashed into the Pentagon and not a field. Having been there I remember it all too clearly and have officially escorted many family members of the victims at the Pentagon Memorial. Who edited this thing, …… Washington Post writers? This begs the question; What else in this "Book of Facts" is incredibly wrong?

Gave this as a gift to my teen (who does not like to read) and it was very hard for him to put down because it was so interesting and captivating. :-)

Has some interesting facts not thought about

I enjoyed this book. Very simple and has some interesting facts. It's good enough that I'm going to order some of his other books. Trivia Madness sounds interesting. That's my next purchase.

Interesting book, fun to read

Interesting book. A little light on documenting. But, I enjoyed it. For instance, I didn't know that Thanksgiving actually celebrated the ratification of the Constitution, not the pilgrim story I grew up with.
