Ask a Historian: 50 Surprising Answers to Things You Always Wanted to Know by Greg Jenner
2.0
As an adult that’s a history nerd & trivia geek, I was very excited to find this. However, it was a disappointment.
It is nothing like BBC History Magazine, The Unbelievable Truth or QI: Quite Interesting. Or even on the level of Big Fat Quiz with Jimmy Carr.
The majority of the question/answers were either eye rolling obvious or about bodily functions & naughty bits. No real insights to be gained. Give this to a middle school & even high school kid and it would be on their level perhaps.
