I feel trivia books are helpful sources of information, however, some are not completely accurate. Unfortunately, there is a wrong answer to question#3475: In Peter and the Wolf, Sergei Prokofievs popular symphonic fairy tale for children, what instrument is used to represent the cat? Answer: The oboe. This is incorrect. The cat is the clarinet. I hope I dont find to many other mistakes. If there is a list available for incorrect answers found in this book, Id like a copy. Otherwise, Ill double check these answers before publicizing them.
I would recommend buying this book because it contains many questions. The quality of the questions is not as good as those I have seen in other books. If you want to purchase a fun, general trivia book, this would be an excellent choice. If you want to purchase a slightly more academic book this is still a good choice but you will have to carefully choose the questions. Approx. 60% of the questions contain useless information.(If youre looking for academic questions) Still, this book is a very good value.
while a lot of the info in this book useless info it is still a fun read.I got a long time ago and i still read it from time to time. i do not know if they still sale it, but i would say it is a good buy.
