Format:Hardcover
An ideal novelty present for someone who's not easily offended. Some of the pictures let it down as they're not all photographs - some are just drawings, which doesn't really have the same effect, nor are they as useful to recognition purposes.

It's like the author dreamt up an 'amusing' title and then was faced with the task of filling some pages to accompany it. It's of no interest or use to anyone and isn't funny at all.

Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
An amusing subject that should have been developed into a one-off feature in a satirical magazine or the like. It's somewhat restricted subject matter coupled with a perceived sparsity of in-depth research and lack of photographs of the subject matter, was manifestly insufficient for a book.
The reaction from various family and friends was on seeing the book cover to smile and immediately pick it up to discover more, but that was about it really as they soon put the book down disappointed with it's contents.
