Schotts Original Miscellany makes few claims to be exhaustive or even practical. It does, however, claim to be essential. It will afford you great wisdom in the morning, several conversational bons mots for the afternoon, and many an enlightened smile after dark.Where else can you find, packed onto one page, the thirteen principles of witchcraft, the structure of military hierarchy, all of the clothingcare symbols, a list of the countries where you drive on the left, and a nursery rhyme about sneezing?Where else but Schotts Original Miscellany will you stumble across the name of John Lennons cat, the supplier of bagpipes to the Queen, and the brutal methods of murder encountered by Miss Marple?An encyclopedia? A dictionary? An anthology? An almanac? An amphigouri? A treasury? A commonplace book? Well... yes. Schotts Original Miscellany is all these and, of course, more. A book like no other, Schotts Original Miscellany is entertaining, informative, unpredictible, and utterly addictive.Ben Schott is a photographer, designer, and trivia collector. He is twentyeight (although he believes you might prefer to picture him as a whitehaired librarian) and lives in Highgate, London.

I recently picked up the Schott's Original Miscellany and it's such a fun read! The variety of trivia and facts is perfect for anyone who enjoys random knowledge. I bought it for my dad, but I find myself borrowing it all the time. The print quality is excellent, too!

Arrived damaged, disappointed
Unfortunately, my copy of Schott's Original Miscellany arrived with some pages crumpled and the cover bent. I was really looking forward to this book! I hope to get a replacement soon, but it's a letdown this time around.

Interesting but a bit scattered
The Schott's Original Miscellany is full of quirky facts which I love, but it feels a bit unorganized at times. I wanted more depth on certain topics. Still, it's a great book to flip through when you're bored!

Not what I expected
I got the Schott's Original Miscellany thinking it would be more comprehensive. It's cool, but the sections feel a bit random. Some facts are fun, while others don’t hook me as much. I still enjoy picking it up every now and then, but not my favorite.

Perfect for trivia nights
I bought the Schott's Original Miscellany for our weekly trivia night, and it's been a hit! The range of topics is fantastic, and everyone loves the obscure facts. It's also a great coffee table book that sparks conversations. Definitely a keeper!
