Doc Jim's Book of WHO CARES!?

Doc Jim's Book of WHO CARES!? (Paperback book of trivia)

Price: $14.95

    Sit back, dear reader, and open your mind to a world you may have once dismissed with an utterance of "Who cares!?" whenever the word "trivia" was mentioned...
     This work is not a modest collection of trivial data filched from an Internet search, since Information of this type is not altogether accurate. Nor does it lean on circumstances thought true for years, yet found unreliable under tight examination. Rather, the author has thoroughly researched each piece of trivia enclosed within these pages, sourcing many with dates, records and period artwork for the most accurate of obtainable facts...
    At any rate, whether or not you respect that awesome word "trivia" after reading this little volume, wouldn't it be nice to take home a lot of extra money because you knew something someone else didn't?
    Amply illustrated!

Price: $22.50

    Clerics and prelates waved God aside as they interpreted His meaning to benefit themselves in their quest for worldly riches - for absolute power...
    Illustrated with period paintings, etchings and photographs.
