Here's what you will discover with this book: 720 multiple choice questions: Choose from 4 possible answers from each question. Unlike other quiz books we have seen out there - possible answers in The Ultimate Geography Quiz book are meant to be challenging and the possible answers are well researched to truly make you think - see below for more details.

This book makes a perfect gift for adults and children with an interest in geography. Recommend age 12+ Question topics within The Ultimate Geography Quiz include, but not limited to: Country and continent names, size, borders and locations respective to each other. Mountain, mountain heights, mountain range and volcano names and their locations. Ocean, seas, marginal seas, and their locations respective to each other City, building, landmark and capital city names and location. Deserts, forests, jungles, glaciers! Country size, flags, language currency, religion, climate and population. Flag, flag colors, other flag attributes. Physical Geography jargon. World record facts regarding geography. Challenging multiple choice questions: We have seen several quiz books that have a poor selection of multiple choice questions, such as example below... What is the highest mountain in Turkey? A Mt. Whitney B Mt. Everest C Mt. Ararat D Mt. Cook Whilst this question is somewhat tricky in itself, the answers given allow most geographers to eliminate the 3 wrong answers quickly to come up with answer C. Instead of this approach, we have kept the quiz more like shown below to make this strategy of quizzing harder for the challenger... What is the highest mountain in Turkey? A Mt. Elbrus B Mt. Davamond C Mt. Ararat D Mt. Bazarduzu Although it may be easy for some seasoned geographers, this question, by the choices given is harder for the most part, and will hopefully trigger more conversation/thought before answering.
