Much of the trivia included in "Italian Trivia" is generally unknown, so reading through the book will be like a treasure hunt for those interested in Italian facts and lore. For example, did you know that in Ancient Rome, the punishment for killing one's father was the death penalty, consisting of being sewn up in a sack along with a viper, a dog, and a cock? How's that for a weird fact.Included are Chapters on: - Italy's Amazing Trivia- Leaning Tower of Pisa- Pasta- The American Mafia- Ancient Rome- Modern Rome- Famous Italians- Florence Facts & Trivia- Venice Facts & Trivia- Milan Facts & TriviaHere's little of what you'll learn inside the book: - Instead of a State Department as in the U.S. government, the Ancient Roman Empire had a "Bureau of Barbarians".- Italy is said to have more art masterpieces per square mile than any other country in the world.- Construction on the Leaning Tower of Pisa took 176 years. It was begun in 1174 but wasn't completed until around 1350.- Italy produces between 1,700,000 and 3,300,000 TONS of pasta per year. This is more than any other country (and equivalent to the weight of over 400,000 elephants)."Italian Trivia" was compiled and edited by Gregory Simonds, who has authored numerous books under his own name as well as pen names.His love of Italy and all things Italian led him to putting together hundreds of interesting tidbits about Italy, it's history, its people and its culture.
