Did you know that Susan B. Anthony was not anti-abortion? Adolf Hitler's relatives lived in New York? Virginian colonists resorted to cannibalism and eating human feces to survive? Electric powered cars actually predate gas-powered cars and have been around since the 1800s? Hybrid cars running on electricity and gas were prototyped in 1898 well over 100 years before the Toyota Prius? The police aren't obligated to protect individual citizens from criminals?

This book is a good one to have around the coffee table. There's even a volume 2 out.
