Trivia Why's, Volume 4

Always amusingly entertaining, often oddly enjoyable, sometimes surprisingly educational, and periodically perfectly enlightening, the 2,000-plus multiple-choice trivia questions in Trivia Why's, Volume 4 can provide a fount of knowledge for your reading pleasure or serve as an excellent supplement to your favorite trivia board game. Each page features questions from six general trivia categories (Entertainment & Food, History & Government, Math & Science, Geography & Nature, Literature & Arts, and Sports & Games), and answers are kept out of view, appearing in the same spot on the same side of the book two pages later.

While most trivia games and books present naked answers without explanation or justification, you will always learn something more here.

* Sure, you can recall what lake the Hoover Dam is located on, but what was the dam called previously?

* You may remember what movie Sir Alec Guinness won his only Oscar for, but what was special about his co-star's salary?

* Of course, you know how many legs an arachnid has, but what other arachnids are there besides spiders?

Every answer is accompanied by a related factoid to make you trivia wise!
