From the Publisher

How many acres of pizza are eaten daily in the U.S.? What is the mystical significance of the number 22? How many days can an ant survive under water? What is the longest recorded attack of hiccups (in years)? How many accidents involving tea cozies were recorded in Britain in 1993? (The answer to the last one: three, all resulting in trips to the hospital!) Arranged numerically, from one (the number of paintings sold by Van Gogh in his lifetime) to 5,671,350,435,227 (the dollar-amount of U.S. national debt at the end of 1999) this entertaining reference book will answer questions that you've never even "thought" of asking. William Hartston is the author of "Odd Dates Only."
