Whitaker's World of Facts

This single volume family reference book comes from the publishers of the renowned Whitaker's Almanack. It combines the most up-to-date, 'must have' information on every important subject on earth with lashings of fact files and world record-breakers and Russell Ash's compelling 'top ten' style lists - all lavishly illustrated with full colour photographs. Hugely entertaining and informative in equal measure, this book is a superb reference title for all the family. "Places, people, dates, animals, events - this 320-page tome is packed with enough facts to end any family dispute. A Christmas read to dip into again and again. Essential stuff." The Sunday Times "Essential facts, figures and lists. Firsts, lasts, bests and worsts. All the facts you could ever want and more at your fingertips." Daily Express
