"And I thought my friends were weird. Reading A People's History of the Peculiar is like wandering around the Epcot Center on hallucinogens – colorful, crazy, occasionally terrifying, and always exciting. If you're a trivia buff with a penchant for the madcap, do yourself a favor, and buy this book." — Matt Shaer, Christian Science Monitor
