The long-standing Number Crunch newspaper column in The
Age and Sydney Morning Herald is a weekly bite of
diverse, but always fascinating, stats and facts. This
compendium is the second in a series of books that bring
together the very best of the facts, feats and stats
discovered by author John Croucher over many years of
compiling the column. It includes a fresh new suite of
cartoons by Roger Harvey. 637 Gorillas refers to the
largest number of people running in gorilla suits in one
race. Bananas if you ask us.
