Settle Arguments with Pocket Ref

I’m a loud, argumentative, know-it-all. Perhaps you are too. Nothing helps the common domestic know-it-all more than really good ammunition. By this, I mean having facts and figures at the ready.

Sure, you can whip out your cell phone and start googling mid-conversation but trying to navigate a teeny-tiny keyboard in a smoky bar isn’t easy at the best of times.

Instead, throw a copy of Thomas J. Glover’s “Pocket Ref” into your pocket or purse. This little book knows everything.

It doesn’t matter whether you’re trying to remember the Perfect Gas Law, how many ranks of Petty Officer exist in the Navy, how to tie a Mangus Hitch or the proper code for every airport in the world. It’s in there.

Pocket Ref is a jaw-dropping monument to densely-packed trivia. In its 700+ pages is practically everything you need to know about whatever it is you’re talking about. I love it.
