Also known as Facts and Trivia or The Giant Book of Facts and Trivia (both from the UK), this book was first published in 1979, with final edits being made by Isaac Asimov. As a general reference book, the Dewey Decimal Classification includes it in 031 — General encyclopedic works.The book is divided into seventy-seven chapters, each with a few dozen facts related to the chapter title. Most reviewers recommend this for bathroom reading, as the short facts are mildly entertaining, but lacks an overarching narrative to create continuity.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); }) | |

Cassandra Truth | |
| Asimov's Book of Facts / int_cf92fea8 | comment |
Cassandra Truth: Real Life Phoenician traveller Hanno was the first to circumnavigate the African continent. When he reported the unusual sight of a noonday sun in the northern direction, the Greek historian who recorded this fact, Herodotus, considered it completely unbelieveable. Nowadays we realize that it was proof of his trip. | |
