Book Review: Keep a grain of salt handy...
Summary: 4 Stars
While this book is extremely entertaining, a lot of the entries in the original release have been proved to be urban legends (Catherine the Great being killed while getting intimate with a horse, girl impregnated by bullet that had passed through soldier's scrotum, etc.) or printed unconfirmed rumors as fact.
SO much fun to read, though! I love this book.
