Every page is full of detailed pictures and colorful artwork! The book has interesting topics, along with a detailed picture to go along with it. Every category is filled with fun facts that will draw you to the book every spare moment you have. I urge you to go to your local bookstore and buy it if you haven't already. Also if you can find them, by now they are probably sold out. Hurry, I promise you won't be let down.

5.0 out of 5 stars The ultimate sourcebook for trivia lovers!, May 16, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: The Guinness Book of Records, 1999 (Guinness World Records) (Hardcover)
My whole family loves the Guinness book.....it's fun to read. I do have a bone to pick with the editors,though----someone didnt do a very good job in proofreading,or an accurate job of researching. Anyone who has ever listened to country music KNOWS the title of Garth Brooks' song is "If Tomorrow Never Comes".......NOT "If Tomorrow Never Dies"! Makes me wonder how many other editorial/research errors are present!

This is a very good book. It has alot of really cool records and the book is divided into sections so you can find the records you want without having to look through the entire book. I learned alot of things and I think you will too.
