I was surprised that Shackleton brought so many dictionaries with him. That’s something I never would have thought to pack.

Also, the oddest book titles of 2016 is great. I love the one about the Soviet Bus Stops.

  Shackleton was a man after my heart! I don’t think most people would think to take a dictionary, though, especially in this day and age.
  I could read about odd book titles every day. They’re a hoot!
