Reviews:
"Rachlin has written a fascinating trivia book covering over 50 artifacts and objects in history. The prose is sprightly and often witty."
--Library Journal

"Entertaining and enlightening . . . a pageant of human aspiration, achievement, obsession, and belief."
--Publishers Weekly

"Detailed and authoritative."
--Parade

"Surprisingly well-researched . . . it reads like a collection of plot summaries for future Indiana Jones movies. Rachlin manages to give the book enough teeth to please both a history buff and a National Enquirer enthusiast."
