Pocket Guide To Brilliance

Description

Punctuated with a droll, dry wit, Bart King's "The Pocket Guide to Brilliance" is a goldmine of treasures guaranteed to sharpen your IQ. Brilliant people think deeper, know more, and get better haircuts than the rest of us. But with this book, we can join their ranks! Learn from masters of brilliance like: the first female journalist, Anne Royall, who forced an interview with John Quincy Adams by stealing his clothes while he was skinny dipping. Candidate John Lindsay, who released chickens at a speech by his opponent, George Wallace, in order to shame Wallace into a debate. Benjamin Franklin, the originator of phrases like 'A learned blockhead is a greater blockhead than an ignorant one', and 'A man who lives on hope, dies farting'. "The Pocket Guide to Brilliance" will provide countless hours of entertainment and insight, as well as providing vital tips on beefing up your BQ (Brilliance Quotient!).
