"I recommend this to everyone! People should know what obscure, seemingly insignificant events and practices occurred decades and centuries ago. Who knew they used to put cocaine in toothpaste, and used kids to advertise it? That would get you life in prison these days! Everything from health, death, science and even erotic history. Great stuff! Need an interesting topic for party conversation? I suggest reading this the night before. You'll be the witty center of attention."
"I love this book! It's so bizarre, and it does exactly what it says it would: it informs you on the bizarre history so many of us are familiar with, but had no idea on the back story. For those who love the unique, bizarre, disgusting, hilarious and morbid parts of man's history on this earth, you should either read this...or "5 People Who Died During Sex" (which is equally engrossing)."
