List

Lists of Note

Lists have a long history. Everyone has likely tried to organize their thoughts or express their inner feelings by listing various items. "A Fun History of Lists" features 124 lists of various styles, each accompanied by a corresponding image, most of which are photocopies of the original lists.
These 124 lists span ancient and modern times, covering many historical events and anecdotes of celebrities: some of the reasons why the ancient Egyptians asked for leave are still applicable today; Darwin's father questioned his son's career because he was worried that his child would never have a stable life again; the agreement that Einstein asked his wife to abide by makes people think about the meaning of marriage; Howard Lovecraft always had some bizarre ideas in his mind, but his ordinary words make people feel cold; Monroe's New Year's resolutions will probably remind people of the annual plans they made every year but ultimately failed to complete... These lists rarely appear in public, but they are all uniquely charming and interesting, and are worth everyone's careful appreciation.
Humans have a long history of making lists. They help us remember the important things we never want to forget: our resolutions and desires, our likes and dislikes, the reasons we laugh or cry, and the secrets we never share. 124 lists of varying styles, 124 captivating and unforgettable memories, take you behind the scenes to discover the rational thinking, clever humor, and unforgettable pain and love.
