The Daily Telegraph A To Z Of Almost Everything

A Compendium of General Knowledge.

This is a unique publication. Nothing as comprehensive has appeared before.

Ranging from Abbreviations to the Zodiac, some of its sections stand up in their own right as reference works: the section on Music encompasses more information than many specialist music books; the section on Cinema includes all films of general interest (and the first and last films of a multitude of stars); the section on History includes a detailed chronology of world history with every major event listed; and the section on Geography is perhaps the only work to include a fully comprehensive list of 'Capitals of the World', even those uninhabited Pacific islands.

This monumental work of reference is a must-have title on your bookshelf - both an enjoyable book to dip into and a cornucopia of sheer fact.
