Learn fascinating facts about the history, culture, leaders, and heroes of our great nation in this comprehensive volume of U.S. trivia.

This land is your land—so you should know a thing or two about it. American Trivia is chock full of fascinating facts, historical riddles, and puzzling quizzes about the people, places, and events that make this nation great. Divided into sections on national origins, presidents, historical figures, and more, this book offers a crash course in essential Americana.

In these pages, you will learn the origin of the national anthem, stories about national monuments such as the Liberty Bell and Statue of Liberty, fascinating information about the country’s heroes and inventors, and more. As co-authors, Richard Lederer and Caroline McCullagh demonstrate, American trivia is anything but trivial.
