George Stimpson (1896–1952)
was the author of ten well-researched books of information and interesting
facts, arranged in
question-and-answer format.
Based on these works, Stimpson
could be considered a pioneer of
the "useless facts" genre of book.
Stimpson's works have entered the public domain in Canada, and
this site aims to eventually reproduce these works online. So far (as of June, 2015), there are only the first few pages from Information Roundup online.
