| book description |

You can enter Mr David Mitchell's amazing Cabinet of Curiosities and prepare to marvel at this hand-picked and lavishly illustrated compendium of incredible facts, each one painstakingly culled from the hugely acclaimed BBC Radio and Australian TV show The Unbelievable Truth. Plus - try your own truth-detection skills over a series of ingenious comic essays on a diverse range of subjects from Armadillos to Sir Walter Raleigh by the show's co-inventor Dr Graeme Garden - each essay contains five incredible truths, tantalisingly concealed amongst a host of barely credible lies. The Unbelievable Truth is hosted by the award-winning actor, comedian and writer David Mitchell, and was first broadcast on Radio 4 in 2006, since when it has become one of BBC Radio's most popular and successful shows.
