Trivia fans and American history buffs will love these quick fact-filled profiles revealing tidbits like:
- Colonel Sanders launched KFC at the ripe age of 65.
- Charles Goodyear was forced to sell the dinner service and dine from rubber plates.
- Leo Fender, inventor of the famed Stratocaster, never learned to play the guitar.
