Maryland Trivia is the who, when, what, where, and how book of the great state of Maryland.

It focuses on the history, culture, people, and places of the fascinating Old Line State.
Maryland trivia compiler Shirley Menendez and others have performed a very worthwhile service with this excellent book. It encompasses a broad spectrum of topics. You will be amazed by some obscure facts you never knew existed. The history chapter of this book by accident omits a significant event in the history of Baltimore. My great-grandfather was a German immigrant named Boston Fear. He created Walbrook: Baltimore's very first suburb. Walbrook was originally named Fearville in honor of Boston Fear. The movie industry's very first superstar, Francis X. Bushman, was given his very first job in life by Boston Fear. Few books have ever been written pertaining to the subject of Maryland trivia. I highly suggest you own a copy of this book!
