Summary: This book is really helpful for Geography Bee hopefuls
Comment: I give this book a 5-star rating because it really kept me intrigued. On a campout, i stayed up and continued reading it by moonlight. If you are a person looking for assistance in the National Geography Book, this is an excellent book. A whole bunch of questions appeared on my written state qualification exam (which i passed). Questions that helped included "What is Pinyin?" "What is Manifest Destiny" "What are the horse latitudes?". A lot of the questions appeared at the state bee, but, unfortunately, i didn't get any of them! But still, this is a must have and therefore gets my 5-star rating!

Summary: What a fun way to learn!
Comment: "The Handy Geography Answer Book" is a great book for all ages. As an individual who has taken courses in geography and geology at the university level, I have found this book to be refreshing as it explains things that many might never think of. For example: "Why did Macedonia's name cause problems between that country ang Greece?"; "How do trains help establish time zones?"; "How do the Netherlands keep getting bigger?"; "Which states are earthquake-free?"; "What is the leading cause of disaster-related death in the United States?"
The questions are fun. The answers are concise and not long winded. There are 'tons' of information packed to keep you busy for awhile. Quiz your spouse or children. Use the knowledge on "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?" Or, just feel good knowing that you are learning something new!
The book I have is the 1999 copy with a yellow face. I don't know if the information has changed or not but I could not find the specific version I own in the search engine. However, I am certain it is similar.
My only complain is the craftsmanship of the book. As a paperback, it lives up to the flimsy feel. The quality of paper is cheap and the covers are thin. If you can get past that and look at the book more for the information than the physical quality, you'll be okay. Get it! You'll be glad you did.

Summary: The best so far in a great series !
Comment: I have at least 7 of the "Handy Answer" series and this one was my favorite. I simply couldn't put it down. I was up till 2AM reading. The author was knowledgeable and the book was very readable. I stocked up enough facts to play even the toughest trivia games.
