Hope this lives up to its awesome cover. So often they sadly fail to .....
This book is a collection of trivia related (loosely, in my opinion) to brilliance. The author discusses historical and contemporary figures in U.S. history and their foibles and flashes of insight. The book is a series of short anecdotes, usually funny and mostly interesting.
We got this as a gift for friends who moved to Portland, and after flipping through it I got so interested that I read it. It consists of eighborhood by neighborhood descriptions of interesting and historical architecture, woven with stories about Portland's history and colorful citizens. A school teacher with a history degree, the author has a dry sense of humor that I really like. Lots of pictures.
