Guinness World Records 2005 (50th Anniversay Edition)

Customer Reviews

An essential reference tool. - By: Ned Middleton, 09 Apr 2006
Whilst some readers will always buy the latest edition of this book because they are interested in the largest, talllest, fastest or whatever, personallly I have always found this book to be a first class reference source.

It was from the Guinness Book of records that I learned that the largest Turtle known to man was a giant Leatherback Turtle which (to my great surprise) was washed up on the shores of Ireland - & "not" some Caribbean country as one might expect.

Of course, not alll the records are repeated from one edition into the next or each book would be identical except for any new records achieved during the past 12 months. For this reason, the reader might need to collect a few editions of the book in order to have as good a collection of records as possible.

Just a few loose thoughts reallly.
