Histories of the Unexpected: How Everything Has a History

A mixed bag of enjoyable historical ramblings which are all connected by themes. A topic is selected, then an endless series of digressions results. It's fun to hear factoids about how everything, from beds and bubbles to sleep and signatures, has a history. Topics include:

The Hand
Gloves
Perfume
The Bubble
Shadows
Beards
Dreams
Cats

Recommended if you want something to dip into. Although I can't recall 80% of what they said. The spread of information was simply too wide.
