Historia
Millions of people visit xkcd.com each week to read Randall Munroe's iconic webcomic. His stick-figure drawings about science, technology, language, and love have a large and passionate following. Fans of xkcd ask Munroe a lot of strange questions. What if you tried to hit a baseball pitched at 90 percent of the speed of light? How fast can you hit a speed bump while driving and live? If there were a robot apocalypse, how long would humanity last?

Historia
The Appalachian Trail trail stretches from Georgia to Maine and covers some of the most breathtaking terrain in America - majestic mountains, silent forests, sparking lakes. If you’re going to take a hike, it’s probably the place to go. And Bill Bryson is surely the most entertaing guide you’ll find. He introduces us to the history and ecology of the trail and to some of the other hardy (or just foolhardy) folks he meets along the way - and a couple of bears. Already a classic, A Walk in the Woods will make you long for the great outdoors (or at least a comfortable chair to sit and read in).

Kenneth C. Davis, author of Don't Know Much About® History, Don't Know Much About the Civil War and Don't Know Much About the Bible, turns his inimitable wit and wide-ranging knowledge to the subject of geography, and proves once and for all that there is a lot more to it than labeling countries on a map. From often amusing perceptions people have had through the ages about the world and the universe to the changing map of today, Davis shows how geography is really a great crossroad of many fields: biology, meteorology, astronomy, history, economics, and even politics.

People often believe that the years immediately prior to AD 1000 were, with just a few exceptions, lacking in any major cultural developments or geopolitical encounters, that the Europeans hadn’t yet reached North America, and that the farthest feat of sea travel was the Vikings’ invasion of Britain. But how, then, to explain the presence of blond-haired people in Maya temple murals at Chichén Itzá, Mexico? Could it be possible that the Vikings had found their way to the Americas during the height of the Maya empire?

Historia
Land - whether meadow or mountainside, desert or peat bog, parkland or pasture, suburb or city - is central to our existence. It quite literally underlies and underpins everything. Employing the keen intellect, insatiable curiosity, and narrative verve that are the foundations of his previous bestselling works, Simon Winchester examines what we human beings are doing - and have done - with the billions of acres that together make up the solid surface of our planet.

Historia
Today it is common knowledge that the dinosaurs were wiped out by a meteorite impact 65 million years ago that killed half of all species then living. It is far less widely understood that a much greater catastrophe took place at the end of the Permian period 251 million years ago: at least 90 percent of life on earth was destroyed. When Life Nearly Died documents not only what happened during this gigantic mass extinction, but also the recent renewal of the idea of catastrophism.

This paradigm-shifting book paints a spirited portrait of a restless people that challenges our established ways of looking at Europe's past. The story is more complex than at first believed, with new evidence suggesting that the European gene pool was stirred vigorously multiple times. Genetic clues are also enhancing our understanding of European mobility in epochs with written records, including the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons, the spread of the Slavs, and the adventures of the Vikings.

The monumental statues of Easter Island, both so magisterial and so forlorn, gazing out in their imposing rows over the island’s barren landscape, have been the source of great mystery ever since the island was first discovered by Europeans on Easter Sunday 1722. How could the ancient people who inhabited this tiny speck of land, the most remote in the vast expanse of the Pacific islands, have built such monumental works?

FUN INFORMATION AND FACTS ABOUT AFRICA!
This was a fun trivia listen about African culture, facts, and education. The family had a fun Friday Family Game Night, and I have to admit I got stumped on a few questions, and we all learned some interesting facts.

Really fascinating
I've always had a desire to travel the whole world, but i have to admit, I was a little undereducated about Africa. So this was perfect. I got a ton of information, and now I CAN'T WAIT to see Africa. Fantastic narrator, too. Really fun listen.

Exactly as advertised
This book offers exactly what it promises and excels in it's structure and professionalism. The questions/answers were formatted in a simple, easy to follow way and you can tell the writer has put a lot of time into planning this audiobook. I especially enjoyed the fact that the trivia questions were repeated once before the answer was given because I find with books like this I sometimes miss the question while going about my daily activities, or get distracted so the one time repetition saved a lot of time spent going back.

Educational and Entertaining
When you are the driver on a trip, there is probably nothing worse than bored children. Why not pick this book up and educate the whole family. The children will learn and the adults will have to dust off their memories. When I was a child we did not have audiobooks. We would call out the various state license plates or try to get the truckers to blow their horns. This book is much better and your whole family will learn some interesting geography curiosity. The narrator's voice is clear and easy to listen to. Time will indeed fly when you employ this book!

LOVED!!
A great audiobook book on general knowledge about Africa. Loaded with fun questions for kids and even adults. The author is very creative with the questions, some questions are in MCQs, some are fill in the blanks and some are true and false.
It's a must have for long trips/drives and gathering.
