This is not just your generic book of paranormal wonders; it's your generic book of non-paranormal wonders too! It includes lots of fascinating and amusing stories about science (as known at the time) and history, as well as some stranger stories, all bereft of any proof, chosen solely for their entertainment value. Does this review sound familiar? That's because it's generic too! It was a good read when I was twelve years old or so, though.
