In 2003, a curious, old-fashioned, pocket-size book transformed
the way we look at information. Since then, "Schott's Original
Miscellany" and its two sequel volumes have been translated into
more than fifteen languages and have sold some three million
copies. Now Ben Schott returns to the miscellany format with a brand-new
cabinet of curiosities. Inside, you'll find fascinating facts cheek
by jowl with information you can't live without. All things are
considered, from footwear labeling symbols, airport runway
markings, and sign-writing brush sizes to the traditional method of
counting sheep and how to smoke cigars while reading the
news. Nothing escapes the jeweler's eye of this curator of
unconsidered trifles. An essential addition to the bookshelf of all
who love life's rich tapestry, "Schott's Quintessential
Miscellany"-equal parts encyclopedia, almanac, treasury, and
lexicon-will remind you that there is only one Ben Schott. Praise for "Schott's Miscellanies" "If we live in an information age, then Ben Schott has become
something of a maestro, or perhaps a master chef, ranging over the
whole of knowledge and seasoning his...books with a pinch of this,
a drop of that." -"Chicago Sun-Times" "Genuine practical value...Elegantly designed...A vast empire of
informational flotsam and jetsam." -"New York Times" "One of the oddest and most addictively readable reference books
in print."-"Boston Globe" "Completely earnest and mischievous at the same time."-"Newsday"

Part of an exciting series of sturdy, square-box 1000-piece jigsaw puzzles from Flame Tree, featuring powerful and popular works of art. This new jigsaw will satisfy your need for a challenge. This 1000 piece jigsaw is intended for adults and children over 13 years. Not suitable for children under 3 years due to small parts. Finished Jigsaw size 735 x 510mm/29 x 20 ins. Now includes an A4 poster for reference. Ambrosius Bosschaert the Elder was a Dutch Golden Age painter. The flowers in this arrangement, which include lilies, tulips, roses, and carnations, are painted with almost scientific precision. Bosschaert's choice of a smooth copper support enhances the extraordinary detail of his brushwork. The bouquet itself, however, is a fiction: these flowers do not bloom at the same time, and would have been far too precious to cut for temporary display. This example features a licensed image from National Gallery: Bosschaert - A Still Life of Flowers.
