[.ca] Vivaldi, of Course!: Provocative and Challenging Quizzes ... (ISBN 1579122469)



Wonderful fun:
This is a wonderful book for anyone who enjoys brainteasers. My family spent Thanksgiving afternoon trying to stump each other with the questions in this book- most of which were very challenging.


Great Book -- Lots of Fun:
For those who love history, pop culture, or just good old trivia, this is a very entertaining book that is well worth your while. We have spent hours with it in our house, challenging each other -- "you'll never get this one" -- with the great tidbits the author provides. Highly recommended!


A really tough trivia book:
I received this book as a gift and enjoyed it thoroughly. Although the title doesn't really explain it, each chapter contains twenty questions on all kinds of subjects, from Newspapers to Art History, from the Civil War to Money, etc. These questions are hard! Most are multiple choice, which helps, but for some questions, you need to match 5 or ten items (Match the following 5 historic newspaper publishers/editors with his paper--Joseph Pulitzer, William Randolph Hearst, James Gordon Bennett, etc). I also found a mistake. In the Classical Music section, they list Richard Strauss as being born in 1804, when it really was 1864 (I think they were confused with Johann Strauss). The answers are in the back. This is not for the individual who gets easily frustrated if they don't know the answer, but I would recommend this book to any huge fan of Millionaire, Jeopardy, or Trivial Pursuit.
