American history isn't trivial
Where did the Pilgrims first land? Not Plymouth Rock. They actually made landfall in the New World at what is now Provincetown, Massachusetts. We've probably all used a safety pin or two at some point, but who invented it? Walter Hunt of New York, who made the discovery while absent-mindedly twisting a small piece of wire. If you were asked which president was the most avid movie fan, who would you say? According to White House records, Jimmy Carter watched 480 movies during his four years.
These are just a few of the hundreds of fascinating facts in The United States of Trivia. With this fun and handy quiz book, you'll be able to put your knowledge about America to the test.
