Justin ScroggieReseñas

Miscellany is a good description of this. It's a real hodge podge of all sorts of information, which I found lacked coherence. There is a decent amount of interesting content, but some topics are covered far too briefly, and others with too much detail. Some little snippets don't really even seem to belong to the overall theme. It's all over the place, really. Some parts are very dry, others you can see genuine enthusiasm for from the author.
Good for anyone who likes trivia, but not if you're looking for something with depth. Some parts are also a bit dated.

Plenty of interesting snippets, but spoilt by the author's obsession with morse code, and a certain amount of repetition. Still, I now know which trouser leg to roll up if I want to pass as a Crip. And how to translate the dirty bits in Samuel Pepys.½
