A new, intelligent novelty title that delivers a range of political and historical questions followed by their solutions. For any sharp brain that likes a challenge!Following the success of their debut quiz book, The Ultimate Politics and History Quiz, authors William Scally and Tim Bourke set to work in 2025 to round up a brand new series of questions that would cover even broader ground. This time out, The Ultimate Quiz Quest incorporates not only matters of international historical and political import, but presents curious, keen, and again, always challenging questions from the realms of general knowledge. Nothing, you might say, is sacred, from the media, the delights of advertising and the vagaries of film and television. Thus, in The Ultimate QUIZ QUEST, Bourke and Scally at once provide intellectual entertainment and some high-end trivia from the last five decades for a deal of mischievous fun. The result is 400 thought-provoking queries, together with their exceptionally diverse solutions. While some are relatively straightforward, many pose quite the conundrum. The brain that likes a challenge will relish this book.
