This book is meant to give a broad overview of the biggest events about the America�admittedly with a few more trivial but very interesting tidbits along the way�in a way that delivers truth without getting into debate about bias. History can get dry, so humor is a great alleviator, but quite frankly, not all of it is very funny. Some of it is hard to hear, and some of it sparks debate, sometimes because of one�s interpretation and sometimes because the version we learned hasn�t been unlearned, and the new, not as pleasant information might come as a surprise.In this book, you�ll find 1,000 funny, weird, random, and little known facts about the United States of America. From its Constitution to its molasses explosion, from its presidents' false teeth to its cow-to-resident ratios, the U.S. is full of interesting facts. Did you know that it�s illegal to view a moose from an airplane in Alaska? Or that you can get a unicorn hunting license in Michigan?Via this book, we hope you could learn something and you take it with you. Nothing�s perfect, and some things are further from it than others, but truth is the only way to make sure one gets closer and closer to it. We hope you read this book with interest and sometimes maybe a little anger (though not at us), sometimes a lot of laughter, and you learn something about the United States, about your history, and about how even the things you love most in the world aren�t perfect and really don�t have to be, as long as you�re willing to help get them a little closer.We hope you and your friends enjoy this book!
