Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

Haigh—"one of the world’s leading cricket writers," according to his publisher—is branching out and clearly aiming at the Schott’s Original Miscellany market with this collection of wide-ranging tidbits of information. If you have an insatiable appetite for trivia (or a need for new bathroom reading), you can check out the 30 songs with the word "radio" in the title or the world’s biggest employers. (No surprise, Wal-Mart is #1, but the next biggest isn’t McDonald’s; it’s China National Petroleum.) There doesn’t seem to be much rhyme or reason to what is included here: some entries are as strange and uncategorizable as "Said of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart" (about whom, no doubt, a great many things were said) and as "Catchphrases from The Goon Show." And if you really needed a list of National Book Award winners, you could find it on the Web. But with this small volume at hand, the next time you need the measurements of a king-size bed, you’ll be well prepared.
