"In the olden times, before there were proper, scientific museums, every self-respecting city had its Cabinet of Curiosities: a collection of historical relics, many with hazy backgrounds, each with its own set of accompanying stories and legends. People would come and stare for hours. Today, Simon Welfare and John Fairley have gathered a modern reader's Cabinet of Curiosities, every one more amusing, entertaining, curious, and intriguing than the last. read about Pete Marsh, who died in A.D. 210 and was discovered, his body intact, in 1984. Read about the American Rotten Sneakers contest, and the Diaper Derby; about the Tokyo woman whose plastic surgery gave her the face of Mona Lisa; about the centuries-old Voynich Manuscript, two hundred pages of beautiful, flowery, and undecipherable writing known as the world's most mysterious book. Read Welfare and Fairley's "Cabinet of Curiosities," and on each page uncover more mysteries for yourself."--BOOK JACKET.
