Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
Did you know that a town in Spain celebrates an annual Tomato fight? That British police are still searching for crooks who stole 60,000 bees from their hive? These are just a few of the bizarre but totally true stories you'll find in this exciting new addition to the popular Weird But True series that prove fact IS often stranger than fiction! In keeping with Weird But True's signature style, this book features cool photos, a fun design, and plenty of zany stories from current day and history.
Includes index.
A treasury of bizarre-but-true stories from history includes accounts of such uncanny events as the Great Molasses Flood of 1919 in Boston and the world record set by an armless archer.
