A fascinating collection of stories
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
A fantastic book! I bought this for one of my sons for Christmas, along with several other more print-oriented books. I'm not a diehard fan of books in comic format, but as I reviewed this upon arrival I was delighted to discover the depth of information provided. The wide variety of characters, the great expanse of historical periods covered and the different "genres" of loser subjects proved much more entertaining than I expected when I bought this book. Consider this one of the classier bathroom readers for the entire family!

"The Big Book of Losers" is the ninth in the Big Book series from Paradox Press. This volume tells you about historically bad luck, from General Custer to the Edsel to Milli Vanilli. Reading this book, you can't lose! Just be glad you're not them!
A bit mean but funny anyhow
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
I went to my local comics shop and saw the owner reading The Big Book of Losers. I asked to look at it, and I then know I must have it. The book is full of entertaining stories of people and bad ideas that were failures. It's quite entertaining reading the stories of people like the Dalton Gang, and Milli Vanilli, who deserve to be called losers. Unfortunately, some the people written about did not have the loser essence, but merely had some bad luck, or were held back by people who were more powerful and who were evil. These ones were not so funny. Overall, though, it is a good book, and worth reading
