Hilarious! More than one laugh on every page, but the book also tests your own vocabulary and knowledge of history and geography. You find yourself thinking, "What was this student thinking of when he/she wrote this?" I could guess, in the case of "Victims of the Black Death grew boobs on their necks," but confess that "In the 1400 hundreds most Englishmen were perpendicular" has me stumped.

Even if you don't want to try guessing, you will still enjoy gems like "Death rates exceeded one hundred percent in some towns."
