I actually was interested in this book. I enjoy geography and thought that might be an enjoyable book. Jennings, known first and foremost as one of the Jeopardy champions that were on for a great length of time, clearly loves geography.
Still this book proves to be one that I stopped fifty pages in. Jennings may know trivia and facts but his writing is very clunky. Worse than that I thought his constant asides and jokes were either too much or not funny. And even worse than that at least one of his remarks was offensive. Stating his reverence for libraries, even city libraries that smell like homeless internet users, Jennings surely turned me off.
A very disappointing book
