What a great book!
Published by knarrsteph , 4 years ago
This is currently one of my go-to books for quick reading. It has a lot of stuff I didn't know until I read it. And it's all delivered with a dry wit that's right up my alley... Highly-recommend!
Entertaining

This is my third copy. I keep loaning it out and it never comes back to me! I have used it as an off-the-wall reference book.
This is a stellar, stellar book, just...

...be warned. If you're like me, you've read the reviews and you can think of half a dozen people you would like to buy "An Underground Education" for as a present. How perfect for Larry, John, and Dad. Well, maybe not Dad. I had intended to buy this for my father as a Christmas present, but when I received my copy, I realised that there was a problem. "An Ungerground Education" is littered with photographs. There are castrated men (full frontal) & lots of early porn and all sorts of other fascinating and freaky things. It's all very interesting, except that I cannot even begin to imagine giving it to my father... It's still a good read, though, and I highly recommend it. Just not as a gift for ol' Dad.
Awesome book...

This book was definitely one of the better trivia-oriented books I have read. It goes deep into the details that everyone wants to know about, in some strange fascinating sort-of way, such as Queen Anne and her merry maids at the dinner table, or strange facts on corsets. It's got everything from executions to cults. I recommend this to anyone who is interested in learning the little quirks in history.
