About the Author

Chester Cowell has been fascinated by trivia since being gifted a book of remarkable facts at a young age. As an adult, he has devoted himself to uncovering all manner of obscure trivia, and puts his ever-expanding collection of fun facts to good use in his local community where he hosts a popular weekly quiz night. He lives just outside Cheltenham with his husband, Ken, and their elderly cockatoo, Felix.
