As phrases they are familiar: the four horsemen of the Apocalypse, the seven wonders of the ancient world, the twelve labours of Hercules . . . But how easy is it to name the horsemen? Whose was the apocalyptic vision? Why seven wonders? And who challenged Hercules to clean up the Augean stables? This irresistible book takes us from the three sons of Adam and Eve to the twelve signs of the zodiac in sixty culturally significant lists, backed up with a wealth of information and anecdote about each one, to educate, amuse and entertain.
