Containing over 1500 questions on a wide range of sports, this book provides a comprehensive test of sporting knowledge. Varied and challenging, the questions are divided into eight chapters, including one on numbers (multiple choice) and two on sporting miscellany. While featuring question categories on over 30 physical sports, the book also includes a category on 'mind sports' such as chess and bridge. The questions have a slight modern bias, but earlier eras are not neglected in order to tap into the rich history of competitive sport. Updated to include events from 2012, this second edition brings out some fascinating facts and both sports fans and quizzers should find it entertaining and informative.
