Don t believe everything you hear, at least not until checking it out in The Book of Myths &amp; Misconceptions. This book, from the popular Armchair Reader series, shines new light on hundreds of topics, setting the record straight on urban legends, old wives tales, misattributed quotes all the so-called facts we picked up from any number of less than reliable sources. The Book of Myths &amp; Misconceptions presents the origins and the truths about history, pop culture, health and medicine, science, and the paranormal, to name just a few subjects. Here is a sampling of some common myths addressed in the Armchair Reader editors: Two bloody blockbuster movies, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre and Fargo, were based on real-life events. People use only ten percent of their brains. A penny dropped from the Empire State Building can kill a pedestrian. Ronald Reagan, not Humphrey Bogart, was the first choice to play the role of Rick Blaine in the iconic movie Casablanca. If you consume Pop Rocks and soda together, your stomach will explode. Walt Disney was cryogenically frozen, and his body is buried beneath the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disneyland. Wolves howl at the moon. From the absurd (lemmings commit mass suicide) to the misinformed (Thomas Edison invented the light bulb) to the seemingly logical (cats purr when they re happy), The Book of Myths &amp; Misconceptions sets the record straight on hundreds of topics

The Annotated Rules of Hockey: An Official Publication of the National Hockey League

Lyons Pr

Throughout its rich history, the game of hockey has always had its share of heroes, players who were able to transcend mere athletic ability and bring a unique intangible to the sport. In the game's golden era, players such as Bobby Hull, Gordie Howe and Maurice "Rocket" Richard electrified fans with their brilliant on-ice artistry and legendary skills. Today's stars share those skills and in time, their names may well stand alongside those of the immortals who helped mold the game of hockey.
