"Note: I did not read this book in the bathroom. But I do enjoy the quick but comprehensive snippets of history. I started it a long time ago but would pick it up from time to time. Very interesting stuff!"
"While the title of the book may proclaim it to be a "bathroom reader," the series of Uncle John's books are great to read anytime, anywhere, and are incredibly fascinating to the trivia-minded person, or simply those who get a kick out of uttering "Huh, I never knew that."
At a whopping 512 pages, Plunges Into History will keep you occupied and entertained with thought-provoking tidbits on subjects that span centuries, countries and continents. Filled with all kinds of topics from the mundane to extraordinary, there is enough to keep anyone occupied while they're...well, occupying."
