SYNOPSIS

A perfect book for history lovers, with 125 extraordinary, funny anecdotes about the world’s biggest civilisations and historical eras. We all know that there are pyramids in Egypt and that medieval knights were formidable warriors. But did you know that in ancient Rome, people washed in public toilets and everyone used the same sponge? Or that the Greeks invented the famous yo-yo? Have you ever stopped to think where the expression “feeling groggy” comes from? Or what were pigs and mice accused of when they were judged by the medieval courts? Dive into these pages to answer these questions and many more. Because history is full of surprising episodes, anecdotes and curiosities!
