Mental Floss History of the World - Erik Sass & Steve Wiegand

I expected it to be a bit more humorous but it wasn't. I expected to learn a lot of neat little known tidbits that would give me new insights into historical events but I really wasn't that impressed. I did learn a few interesting things about Asian history though. Too bad I didn't just read that section. I was usually kind of bored reading this book. Why did I finish it?
