Suddenly, the island was no longer just a layover for the Arctic tern. Instead, it became a nation whose diplomats and musicians, sailors and soldiers, volcanoes and flowers, quietly altered the globe forever. How Iceland Changed the World takes readers on a tour of history, showing them how Iceland played a pivotal role in events as diverse as the French Revolution, the Moon Landing, and the foundation of Israel.

Story
The bald eagle is regal but fearless, a bird you’re not inclined to argue with. For centuries, Americans have celebrated it as “majestic” and “noble,” yet savaged the living bird behind their national symbol as a malicious predator of livestock and, falsely, a snatcher of babies.

Story
Kenneth C. Davis, author of Don't Know Much About® History, Don't Know Much About the Civil War and Don't Know Much About the Bible, turns his inimitable wit and wide-ranging knowledge to the subject of geography, and proves once and for all that there is a lot more to it than labeling countries on a map. From often amusing perceptions people have had through the ages about the world and the universe to the changing map of today, Davis shows how geography is really a great crossroad of many fields: biology, meteorology, astronomy, history, economics, and even politics.

Mo Rocca has always loved obituaries - reading about the remarkable lives of global leaders, Hollywood heavyweights, and innovators who changed the world. But not every notable life has gotten the send-off it deserves. His quest to right that wrong inspired Mobituaries, his number one hit podcast. Now with Mobituaries, the audiobook, he has gone much further, with all new essays on artists, entertainers, sports stars, political pioneers, founding fathers, and more. Even if you know the names, you’ve never understood why they matter...until now.

Another fun, fact filled book of knowledge
The author has written another book full of interesting tidbits of the world we live in. Full of fun, humorous, things that I would have never guessed were true or had happened. This is a great book for a traveling family in the car and playing trivia, What about this or that. I've always loved to do research about topics I'm interested in and this book broadened my areas of curiosity. Now thanks to this book I have many more things to go look up and do research on.

In the car, during a long journey, this is the book par excellence. I feel more informed now that I have listened to it.
I highly recommend it!

Well written
Whether you know the answer or not, after playing a lot of trivia you will eventually start learning facts about anything really. I had fun playing the game with my kids. They have different sections so we were able to give each person a different category that they did well in. The book is easy to use and read with easy and hard questions. It’s a very well-thought-out collection and a lot of fun to read. I think it is nice to keep your brain working. I think this makes a nice gift too. It is good for someone on a roadtrip, stuck in a hospital or in bed. I would recommend it.
