FELTON & FOWLER'S MORE BEST, WORST, AND MOST UNUSUAL

A second collection--not necessarily second-bests (see 1975)--of those Ripleyesque curiosities like the Slot Machine in Vegas which poured out $152,683 in one clink or rather clunk. Again eye-catching from arts to law and the government, health to behavior--you'll pick up the Most Unusual School (for Shoplifters--tuition $1500), the Best Currency (rubber prophylactics in Southeast Asia), Best Poultry (not Frank Perdue's but a small bunting, the ortolan), or the Worst Perfume (Chanel #5--made from pussycat sweat). Habit-forming page-turning for the occasional moment which could easily last an hour. (Most Misspelled Word from book to book to book, including this--""imposter."")
