This book makes a perfect gift for adults and children with an interest in geography. Recommend age 12+ Question topics within The Ultimate Geography Quiz include, but not limited to: Country and continent names, size, borders and locations respective to each other. Mountain, mountain heights, mountain range and volcano names and their locations. Ocean, seas, marginal seas, and their locations respective to each other City, building, landmark and capital city names and location. Deserts, forests, jungles, glaciers!

Challenging multiple choice questions: We have seen several quiz books that have a poor selection of multiple choice questions, such as example below... What is the highest mountain in Turkey? A Mt. Whitney B Mt. Everest C Mt. Ararat D Mt. Cook Whilst this question is somewhat tricky in itself, the answers given allow most geographers to eliminate the 3 wrong answers quickly to come up with answer C. Instead of this approach, we have kept the quiz more like shown below to make this strategy of quizzing harder for the challenger... What is the highest mountain in Turkey? A Mt. Elbrus B Mt. Davamond C Mt. Ararat D Mt. Bazarduzu Although it may be easy for some seasoned geographers, this question, by the choices given is harder for the most part, and will hopefully trigger more conversation/thought before answering.

A History of the World in 6 Glasses
Author: Tom Standage
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 0802718590
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
New York Times Bestseller * Soon to be a TV series starring Dan Aykroyd “There aren't many books this entertaining that also provide a cogent crash course in ancient, classical and modern history.” -Los Angeles Times Beer, wine, spirits, coffee, tea, and Coca-Cola: In Tom Standage's deft, innovative account of world history, these six beverages turn out to be much more than just ways to quench thirst. They also represent six eras that span the course of civilization-from the adoption of agriculture, to the birth of cities, to the advent of globalization. A History of the World in 6 Glasses tells the story of humanity from the Stone Age to the twenty-first century through each epoch's signature refreshment. As Standage persuasively argues, each drink is in fact a kind of technology, advancing culture and catalyzing the intricate interplay of different societies. After reading this enlightening book, you may never look at your favorite drink in quite the same way again.
