The third compendium of arcane information that deals with questions you never knew existed until the author answered them anyway. This book is the equivalent to the guy in the pub who tells you things you never wanted to know and you have to buy him a drink just to get him to go away. This book answers questions you didn't ask and to which you didn't even know you wanted the answers until you picked up this book. Was dentistry practised in Roman times?

Produktbeschreibung
The third compendium of arcane information that deals with questions you never knew existed until the author answered them anyway. This book is the equivalent to the guy in the pub who tells you things you never wanted to know and you have to buy him a drink just to get him to go away. This book answers questions you didn't ask and to which you didn't even know you wanted the answers until you picked up this book. Was dentistry practised in Roman times? Why did they never use Winchester Rifles in World War I or II? Was Gediminas, a former Lithuanian peasant, once the most powerful man in Europe? Would a car's fuel tank explode if hit by a bullet? Why did I spend good money buying this book? All these questions are answered, along with many, many more (OK, maybe not that last one, but definitely all the others). A storehouse of treasures for you to cherish and argue about in the pub, or to improve your mind during your daily commute.

Autorenporträt
Robert (Bob) Cubitt has always been keen on writing and has tried his hand at various projects over the years, but the need to earn a crust had always interfered with his desire to be more creative. After serving for 23 years in the RAF, working as a logistics planner for Royal Mail and as a Civil Servant with the Ministry of Defence, Robert took up writing full time writing in 2012 and now has a large catalogue of work published. Bob likes to write in several different genres, whatever takes his fancy at the time. His current series are sci-fi and World War II history and genres don't come much more diverse than that. In his spare time Bob enjoys playing golf, is a member of a pub skittles team and is an ardent Northampton Saints fan.
