If you have any interest in travel and trivia, this book is amazing. I don't know how anyone can find that many unique facts. She must look under rocks or something. But I do find it interesting and a conversation piece. Very well done. It's obvious she knows travel and likes to write about it.

Smart and fun, this eye-opening book has some enlightening facts and figures that surprised even this avid collector of trivia. Examples range from the amazing--e.g.,"The InterContinental Hotel Hong Kong is the only hotel to be built entirely over water. It sits on stilts over Victoria Harbour," to the bizarre: "The Sultan of Johore built Malaysia's first railway in 1869, but the rails were made of wood and were soon eaten by ants." A fast and fun read, Nadine Godwin's "Travia: The Ultimate Book of Travel Trivia" is a delightful resource to share with friends.
