About the Author:
Review:
John Robert Colombo has been called many things ... including "Master Gatherer" for his compilations of Canadiana, John "Bartlett" Colombo for his books of quotations, "Cartographer of the Canadian Imagination" for his ground-breaking anthologies of Canadian fantastic literature, and "Canada's Mr. Mystery" for his books about the supernatural and the paranormal. Since 1960 he has written, compiled or translated over 150 books.
Written with an element of surprise, this book is intended for the general reader who reads to learn and particularly enjoys off beat trivia. (Lynn Fenske Resources 2002-01-01)
It is exciting to read this book, memorable to recall and perhaps even useful. (George Bonavia From My Bookshelf 2001-09-01)
John Robert Colombo, a freelance editor and journalist of talent, has a quick, witty and entertaining mind and rare feeling for words and the contemporary scene. (Miriam Waddington)
